The front desk staff were welcoming at our arrival and gave a good overview of amenities, which included Happy Hour, and pool table and darts in the common area, as well as robes for the hot tub and sauna. The rooms have heated floors in the bathroom and heated towel racks. The staff in the restaurant were friendly and provided quick service to any requests.
