dog friendly room great view

I liked that the rooms are dog friendly and you can park right next to them. It had entry through a patio door. the addition of dog treats was also very nice! we had an evening meal in the garden room with great views while eating. the staff were very friendly and helpful.

i didn't like the darkness of my room. there was a very strong plug in air freshener smell in the corridor outside my room, and i could smell it inside, too. there were no windows to open in the room or bathroom, and no air conditioning was available.
