Upon check-in we were told there were no rooms even though we had a reservation. Then finally when we received a room we were told that we were talking someone else’s room. Seemed a bit unorganized.

This is a very nice property. I understand that my stay was during off season, when updates are made to the property, so I attribute the noise to that.

I was not informed by any person or Expedia that the hotel was undergoing construction work. I came for a much needed peaceful get away and the construction noise started at 7am and did stop til 8pm. The property stated there were 3 restaurants. 1 was open for breakfast and you could get drinks and bar food after 4pm. At the bar. There was no transportation to any where. Needed to call an Uber . The Staff in the Restaurant were wonderful. The owners of the gift shop were very kind and funny. These who worked the bar were pleasant and friendly. The spa saved the day on 2 separate occasions.

Was not happy with their renovations, it was loud first thing in the morning. Not relaxing at all. Also the shower would not completely turn off so we had to hear that all night. Staff was nice though. Food was good.
