The hotel staff were very polite and helpful. The small onsite parking area was closed for construction so parking was a bit of a problem. The hotel did validate the offsite parking fees which was very helpful.

This looks like an amazing hotel, but we only had a few hours to sleep there before checking out so we didn't even get to see it all. The place was beautiful, had a HUGH room. We'd booked rooms for 3 and got a queen bed + (3) singles and could have held a dance in between them. Rooms, bathroom. and amenities in room were great. Staff was fabulous. Very nice, helpful, and efficient.
