Fantastic Stay in a Great Location!

I really enjoyed the large and spacious room! The bed was super comfortable. Breakfast had a very good buffet that catered for everyone. The staff was helpful, efficient, and polite (I loved their positive attitude!).
The air conditioning system struggled to keep up. It needs some serious updating. I think more powerful units could improve guest comfort.
