My husband brought me for my 60th birthday! We love the central location, excellent views, spacious room newly updated and clean. We enjoyed the hot tub, the bar/lounge area for Monday night football while we waited on a late night pizza dinner in our room. Breakfast menu was fresh and generous portions. Wonderful stay to celebrate!
