10/10 Excellent
"It is a beautiful hotel, noted both couples as well as families having fun. But what I really appreciated the most was the staff. Every interaction was positive, they all were helpful and friendly. The first thing as soon as I walked to get registered, I noted their smiles. They are Pet friendly too… It was a wonderful experience…"
