Our stay here was beautiful! Beautiful scenery with the rustic mixed with modern build and design. My room was also wonderful, spacious, with many amenities and everything worked just fine. The breakfast could have a bit more variety but it was free and the pool makes up for it. Restaurants, walkable paths, free parking, complimentary wine for the birthday visit(although they forgot it at first after I called) but nonetheless we received it and all was well
