Room was clean and very inviting. The fireplace was plenty warm. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. The staff were friendly and accommodating to help. The only thing I would say is the whirlpool tub needs better jets.

Upon arrival was double charged, took multiple days to be refunded. Key card didn’t work and needed to be remade (Front desk worker was very polite and got them remade quickly) Semen on flowers above jacuzzi. (Upon arrival) Old food and alcohol left in mini fridge Most buttons on tv remote didn’t work. Waking up to vacuuming is not ideal either.

This place is a beautiful getaway. The room was very clean and smelled nice. I loved the view of the bridge and how there was even a little balcony to hang out on and watch the ships come to port. The fireplace puts out a ton of heat which was amazing. The breakfast was a collaboration of local vendors and the food was fresh and delicious. Even the coffee was on point. The staff was courtious and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. This place has a lot to offer. 10 out of 10 would visit again!
