The hotel rooms were comfortable and attractively decorated but had a terrible musty odor. Despite this, the size was nice with two queen beds, a fireplace, pull-up couch, and a table. We really appreciated the convenience of having two restaurants and an outdoor pool, making it a relaxing retreat after a day of exploring. The fact that they offered free breakfast was a perfect touch. However, the musty odor was a downside.
