8/10 Good
"Room was large and bed was comfortable but the mattress surface was a little high. There was no easy chair to relax in while watching tv or reading. The bathroom had no grab bars for the shower-tub. This made getting into the shower difficult with the deep soaking tub. The base of the shower was higher than the floor. Getting out was a step down with the slick tile floor. The restaurant was very noisy. The tile/rock floors, rock covered walls and steel ceiling beams all reflected noise rather than absorbed noise. The food was well prepared."
