Great location and friendly staff. Room had everything we needed and hotel also has a lovely pool and hot tub plus fire pit and outdoor seating for enjoying the lovely views and sunset. Only downside was the thin walls which meant loud guests woke us up.

A great reasonably priced quick getaway. I believe the receptionists name was Jack. A heck of a guy that left a lasting first impression of the establishment. Employees like that make all the difference in the hospitality world. Overall highly recommended.
