Great
Great room, two king size beds, nice and clean. Also seemed like a good deal price wise, maybe because golfing season is not yet in full swing.

We had a great time on our girls weekend. The bus transportation is nice, especially if you’d had a few to drink. The rooms are clean and beds comfortable.
