gym with ice treadmill/elliptical and free weights

the pool and hot tub was great to soak in

the shuttle doesn’t run early enough

breakfast was amazing!

in my shower left a little something to be desired, and the second of two milk cartons i had at breakfast tasted a little bit weird, but these are obscured by the overall quality of my stay

wish there was an indoor pool or the outdoor pool was open.

i called for the shuttle it was there in 5 minutes

complimentary airport shuttle is a great bonus

parking with airport shuttle

lots of convenient parking and quiet rooms
