The location was great for what I needed, easy to drive out of town and walkable to shops and restaurants. The room was clean and comfortable. I did not get time to try out the fitness room, hot tub or restaurant there.

I enjoyed being able to go to the garden room for breakfast. I did not like the fact there was not ice on every floor. Having to go to the basement for someone with a walker was not confident. Hence only 4 stars.

We travelled on our motorcycle and this hotel was easy to find and park. We also appreciated the on site restaurant. The food was delicious and the staff was accommodating. We also liked the fact there were several fast food options nearby.
