Courteous and helpful staff, elegant property and gardens, spotless room with sumptuous bedding and luxe toiletries—it couldn’t be nicer or more perfectly appointed. An unexpectedly high-end gem.

I was not informed that we would be staying “off campus “, if you will.
Would have appreciated knowing that.
Walls very thin in our room and bath tiny.
But—a very hefty price for cramped quarters and worn and shabby furnishings.
