Room was great, both a comfortable bed and the kitchenette/coffee/fridge was nice. Enjoyed the hot tub, the breakfast burritos and the location/view. Wish I could have adjusted the temperate in the room, it was 76 degrees upon arrival and got as warm as 78 degrees even with the fan on. With also no window to outside it did feel too warm. All in all, a wonderful place to stay!

The room we had didn’t have a kitchen so I can’t comment on that, but the room was very clean and spacious! The hot tub had some issues but staff was very helpful to help us get it figured out! We brought it up to the front desk at check out, they were very friendly about it and thanked us for telling them!

The property is very pet friendly, and there is a huge park right next door for walks. The park also has tennis courts, if you’re into tennis or pickle ball. We very much enjoyed the hot tubs near the pool that have amazing views of the mountains, and also the private hot tub on our patio. The swimming pool was closed during our stay. Breakfast was nice, especially the breakfast burritos and bagels. I also enjoy that the staff had a fire going each morning in the fireplace near the breakfast area. Also, I appreciated being able to use the bathrobes in our room for going to/from the hot tubs.
