Beautiful historic hotel with great amenities and gourmet food & beverages, in perfect central location across from the downtown square park. King size bed was super comfortable and the bathroom shower was awesome. We enjoyed the private pool all to ourselves.

Thought I had booked a room with a balcony, ended up in a patio room. It said king balcony room on website. They need to separate the patio areas for more privacy.
