i appreciated the spacious rooms and the beautifully decorated grounds. the staff was very friendly and seemed to enjoy working together. i especially liked the coffee, tea and drinking chocolate provided in the room.
i found that no shampoo or conditioner was provided in the bathroom. for the price of the room i expected these items. it would have been nice to have these amenities included.
