Mini getaway

The bed was too soft and low for me. The rest of the hotel was great. Service and house keeping were on top of everything. The pool was gorgeous and spacious.

Front desk staff was very friendly and made us feel welcomed. The room was clean and the pool and patio were beautiful. The mattress was a bit soft for my taste. The only thing missing was a bit more than coffee at breakfast, maybe some muffins to go with the coffee.
