The amenities is the main reason we love to stay here, it is unfortunate when the spa jacuzzi is not available which happened the first day of our stay. It was resolved the next day which was a relief given the cold temps.

I had a Junior Suite and it was lovely. Bed was extremely comfortable and it was very quiet. I will say the breakfast is costly in my opinion but it was great.
