Pleasant Stay
Very relaxing and peaceful stay. Views from our balcony were spectacular.
Service was lacking, due to staffing shortage, but all the staff there were extremely pleasant and helpful.

This place is all about location. The rooms are about as good as a good Days Inn, so they are expensive for what you get.

Not very accessible for wheelchair or crutch on getting to any rooms other than a few. The breakfast buffet was excellent! And the staff extremely nice.
