"The only thing was when we went to jacuzzi after eating breakfast, we turned it on waiting for it to warm, It took a long time. I slipped a little & caught my grounds. If not, I would have slipped on tile floor. Also, my boyfriend did, too & he’s a senior. Pls place 4 Moore skid mats around jacuzzi before a guest takes a hard fall."

8/10 Good
"Hotel was beautifully appointed and extremely well situated so that we could walk to our concert, restaurants and a museum. Our room was in a separate building on the ground floor. Unfortunately, it was the first room next to the front door to that building and I could hear people going in and out. I could also hear noises from other rooms, including someone's alarm in the early morning. The king size bed was extremely comfortable. Delicious breakfast included."
