Large Spacious Rooms
We chose this hotel in part because if it’s proximity to the airport ( just minutes away). The hotel was in a beautiful setting and quiet. Off street parking is available ,including underground parking. Our room was large and comfortable. We had dinner in the restaurant; service was good and there were a variety of options.

A very pleasant stay...
.... we had three nights here and were surpised how nice iit was. Our room was spacious and comfortable and well maintained.
We enjoyed the happy hour drinks and had dinner twice. The food was good too. We did not feel like venturing out.
The breakfast deal was excellent value. Undergound parking meant our cars were secure. All in all a great stay and we will return! YMMV
