Disliked: Amenities
The staff was very accommodating, for the most part. There were so unusual moments that I have not experienced elsewhere ( no pool towel provided ,) a large dog onsite barking most of the day with other dogs, and poor internet service. I work from home, so a strong connection was mandatory. The staff tried to accommodate, however the background noise often interfered with meetings. The pictures are also misleading ( loft area is shared / open.) this place is good for a short and quick pit stop, but do no expect much.

Me gustó mucho el servicio del personal, las instalaciones muy cómodas y limpias. El desayuno fue muy bueno y abundante. Lo único que no me gustó tanto en que en la habitación que estuve por lo menos, tiene unas ventanas justo enfrente de la cama, con una cortina que no tapa la claridad, lo cual me hacia despertar bien temprano
