    “Everything!!!! Beautiful artwork, gardens, rooms and helpful staff. The food was fantastic and the mocha coffee the best I’ve had!!! Could have sat in the atrium area and lounged all day. Nice thought was the marshmallows by the fire to have at night. Great bathrooms with fabulous lighting.”

    “Location was very accessible, walkable to the city, down hill, the return a little more challenging but a very short Uber ride. Breakfast was fresh produce, prepared virtually in the dining area with very attentive staff, absolute pleasure.”
