The staff were the highlight including the chef but the hotel is in dire need of a facelift, including new hot tubs.

Welcoming Staff

The hotel staff were very welcoming! The meals offered and bar had excellent options, even for me when I have to eat gluten free. Hotel is a little dated but comfortable accommodations and nice size rooms and bathroom.
