I did not like that staff was short. Noone was ever at checkin desk. Had to be changed to different room because of the mildew, wet smell in room. Services was great and the problem was handled immediately at time of existance.

Love the hotel. The ambiance is gorgeous at the property. All of the staff were courteous and efficient. Rooms are comfy and decorated beautifully and quite cozy. The only thing that we didn't care for was our bed. It just wasn't that comfortable but the pillows on the bed were great.
