Everything was great. The view from our room was FABULOUS. I just feel the rooms are a bit on the small side but it didn’t hinder our stay. The Terre restaurant is wonderful.

Nice hotel, good location, front counter staff was great but the management sucks. Stayed at this hotel a few times but won’t anymore. I had checked into a room for a like 2 hours and had to check out as my wife went into labour. I contacted the property to see if I could get maybe a partial refund, room was almost $350 or a small credit to stay again. Was brushed off, told the cancellation policy applies.
