This hotel was in a very easy and central location to anything you wanted to get to. The staff were all super friendly, the hotel room was immaculately cleaned and restocked with towels and toiletries throughout the day. The beds were turned down and had little chocolates and slippers near the bed when it was time to sleep. The room was spacious and had a refrigerator. The restaurants there were also excellent for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Top notch! 10/10 was my experience.
