The room, as well as the rest of the hotel, was in excellent condition. Beds were comfortable and the choice of pillows was nice. I didn't get a chance to use the pool but it looked very nice and well maintained. I did have breakfast and the options were great! Hot choices as well as cold choices and pastries. There even a pancake oven. Overall great stay.
