The room was spotless, and beautifully decorated.I loved that my room had a double sink in the bathroom, and the bathroom supplies were fuuy stocked for two persons, with extras. The staff was very pleasant, from the valet to front desk. I didn't get to tour the facility as much as I would have loved to, but the bits i were stunning. I hoped to go back very soon. I would give it a 5 stars for the stay, and the overall experience. I will rate the on property restaurants separately.
