I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, with its clean and spacious rooms and a nice pool area to unwind. The location was perfect for exploring nearby attractions. However, the dining options could use some improvement, especially at breakfast, and I felt that the prices could be more inclusive of certain amenities like Wi-Fi.
