My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were big and much nicer than most, with a lovely gas fireplace and warm wood paneling that was beautifully decorated for Christmas. The pool was a nice addition, but unfortunately, there was a noticeable unpleasant smell in some areas. Although my room wasn't quite ready when I arrived, the staff was quick to check me in as soon as they could.
