Terrible electricity was out they promised us 80 percent refund if we stayed there anyway. They never did. We called Groupon and the hotel asked to speak to the manager and never have got too. We just get the run around on both sides.

Romantic Trip, Highly Recommended My husband took me for a romantic trip for my birthday. It was AMAZING! The view was wonderful. The hotel had wifi, we used it for music and it worked good for that. The bed was incredibly comfy, which was appreciated after a day of hiking! (Or hours that felt like a day because neither my husband nor I hike enough)

Wonderful Scenery I had a very pleasant stay! The view from the balcony overlooking the river was absolutely beautiful, and the location is fantastic. It's so convenient to be just a 15-minute drive from the park. The Wi-Fi wasn't as strong as I prefer, but I was able to use my hotspot to get around this. Will definitely visit again!
