8/10 Good
"This was our 5th annual 7+ day stay at the hotel. We love the amenities, hotel staff, location, Breakfast Buffet, "Fun" library! Just one bothersome aspect, consistent through the 5 years: The motion-sensor lights in toilet and shower! A night-light would be enough! When one gets up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, the bright light is jarring and can make it difficult to get back to sleep."

"It was a pleasant surprise to be offered champagne upon check-in, excellent in room coffee availability with coffee grinder. There were snacks available in the room as well. It was nice to find a miniature gift candle at our door when we came home from the day out because we had requested Green service that day… (No need to come and clean our room). The location worked out well. The sliding wooden “door”to cover the windows gave a complete black out!"
