"The staff made this stay an extra star in my opinion. From reception to checking out it, I received exceptional services. Location is just right -close to downtown area but not downtown and with adequate parking and on a bus route. I enjoyed the spa, gym, meals and the proximity to a local park with plenty of trails to run, walk or hike. I highly recommend this location and will stay there on my future trips."

"I would like to downgrade this hotel for the rude female receptionist who refused to get me ice for my diabetes medicine today, but the breakfast was 6 star, so it took my rating back from 4 stars to 5 stars. I still recommend this hotel and found the ice I needed anyways, although the Proseco on the buffet maybe slightly warmer. :p"

"We had an amazing stay! Nina was easy to communicate with and super responsive. The house was in a quiet location that we absolutely loved. The ONLY reason we gave this house 4 stars and not 5 is because we stayed during an extreme heat dome in the summer and the house did not have AC or a fan. But other than that, everything was amazing and we would absolutely recommend this house for future stays."
