9.6/10 Exceptional! (73 reviews)
It was very beautiful and loved the aesthetic of it. Staff was very friendly and kind. The reason I gave it a 4 not a five was because it was sometimes dangerous getting to the hotel from the main street. There is a freeway exit where people are getting off from the freeway and they are going extremely fast and you have to move into that road to get to the hotel which can be dangerous.
