The renovations were impressive and while we stayed in the older part of the hotel the room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast needs significant improvement which I expect will coincide with the completion of the renovations. Would stay here again to make use of all the amenities.

“Our stay at the hotel on May 26th was truly wonderful. The atmosphere was peaceful and elegant, and our room was comfortable and beautifully arranged. Although we only stayed one night, it was a perfect getaway, and we woke up feeling refreshed. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quick, relaxing escape.”
