10/10 Excellent
"This hotel s beautiful and modern. The breakfast is included and was very good. The shower has excellent water pressure but the bathroom does not have an exhaust fan. The deck/pool area could use more privacy from the parking lot. The room has coffee, two tvs, space to sit and relax, and a king size bed. I found the pillows too hard and uncomfortable. There are many delicious restaurants close by."
