Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This place beautiful! The room felt very homey. I do not recommend the Goat restaurant though. The service was lackluster, took forever and the food was not good. There are plenty of other restaurants in the area that are good. Other than that, if you want a wonderful nights sleep and fantastic tub, this will be perfect.
This place is lovely, and I highly recommend the Junction restaurant. There were a couple of issues with the staff during my first night, but the manager called me, and made it right. My room could have had a nicer view, but it is what it is.
Facilities were beautiful - both the indoor and the outdoor pools were lovely. Our room was spacious & comfortable. We didn't dine at the restaurants, but our friends did and they enjoyed themselves.
This is our second trip to the Essex, and we love it even more than the first time we stayed. Everything is perfect, cleanliness to the staff just being so nice. Great place I highly recommend it.
