Xiaoying, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great property beautiful rooms and warm cozy lobby. Food was excellent and staff was super friendly. The hotel is out of town and although they have a pass for the buss you have to walk down the hill to catch the bus and return back to hotel. So not very convenient
Steven, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Some amenities were not available- Finnish sauna was out of use due to construction/repair, and the restaurant is only open Wed-Sun. Paid $72 for "half pension" option for two people thinking it would be comparable to others in the area-- it was buffet and not worth the price. Also paid extra for "king" bed which was just two beds smushed together. Did not receive VIP room upgrade.
Morgan, 1-night trip

While it was partly my fault by taking the room keys when I checked out, may i recommend upgrading to electronic key cards? Other than that, we enjoyed our stay tremendously and will certainly stay again!
