"Room was large, very clean, Landscaping was meticulously maintained. Staff was very attentive to our needs. We had a loose toilet seat and to my surprise it was repaired within 15 minutes of call. Due to the inconvenience we received a voucher for a free dinner at the their restaurant. Anything on the menu to include a full fresh salad bar. Absolutely amazing food and service!! Definitely recommend staying here and trying their restaurant.."
