My wife and I had a wonderful and relaxing stay! The hotel is very clean and the staff was courteous and attended to our every need. There are some great restaurants within walking distance of the hotel that were able to cater to my wife's special dietary needs. The hotel room was very comfortable and quiet, and we enjoyed the hot tub and pool too! Overall, we will definitely stay at the Sandman again when we are in the area!
