The property was well-cared for and clean. Most of (if not all) the rooms have doors that lead from the outside directly to the room, which is very convenient and nice that you can go directly to your room. The gardens outside the rooms were so beautiful. It was nice to watch the nature outside through my window as I was getting my makeup done for my wedding. The only bad thing I have to say is that the spring mattress left my back is burning from after a night on it. The climate control was easy to figure out and the shower had decent water pressure.
