    I felt it was a little expensive, but so nice. Would have liked the price to include breakfast.
  • Candice
    United States United States
    The overall style of the hotel was beautiful but in the rooms it felt too packaged, like a Best Western. The bed was very comfortable. Free bike use was great! The food at dinner was pretty amazing but it came with a ridiculously high pricetag.
