Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were just okay, not particularly luxurious as expected and a bit overpriced. However, the service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to cater to our needs. The location was lovely, well-maintained, and had great facilities, while the dining experience was enjoyable despite some room for improvement.
The hotel had a mixed experience. Although the manager was a bit rushed in asking guests to leave, the room was spacious despite an unimpressive view and heat. The service was exceptional, but there were some issues with the burger quality. The location was convenient, with the main building and annex providing large spaces. The dining experience was satisfying, fitting Marriott standards. The hotel would benefit from a bar area refresh.
The hotel experience was a mix of extremes, from sauna-like rooms to modern, swanky areas. The service was incredibly friendly and helpful, although there were some issues with the location and grounds not being well-maintained. The dining options were good but lacked in some aspects. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
Staying at the hotel was like trying to navigate a marathon between distant rooms while juggling makeup and hair preparations in separate places. The Cast Iron Grill offered a clean and comfortable setting at 7.30 pm, creating a cozy atmosphere for guests. The rooms were very comfortable for a relaxing stay.
