This was a delightful place to stay. The courtyard has a wide range of games and activities and a play area for small kids. In the evening, being able to relax there and make s’mores was such a treat. The room was comfortable and spacious. I had an issue with my room being too cold but the staff quickly brought a space heater. Service was excellent. Would stay here again.
