beautiful king room outdoor patio
The room was a nice Beautiful King Room. The location is really handy for exploring the surrounding area. The outdoor patio was also great.
I found that you could only pay by credit card at the bar, a bit inconvenient. I prefer to have options, so it would be great if they accepted cash as well.
