Beautiful room, not much privacy

Perfectly located, beautiful hotel! However, you should be 100% comfortable with you partner. The sliding bathroom door has a good 1" of open space between the wall and you can hear EVERYTHING.

Liked: Cleanliness
The hotel was nice, but i wasnt told the water was gonna be out during both nights of my stay. So could not shower, brush teeth, or use the restroom. Was very confused the first night and frustrated the second night since i wasnt notified at all. That was the biggest negative, another is i paid for a lake view but it was partial since the complex on the other side blocked most of it. The hotel however was clean

Liked the location . Great friendly staff especially Rene at the breakfast area. Loved the open bar and lounge area. Wish there was a microwave in the room and more fresh fruit options in the market like bananas or a complementary continental breakfast.
