I had a lovely stay at the hotel, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. The room was clean, and the bed was super comfortable, making my nights restful. I really appreciated the thick, white towels and the well-stocked tea and coffee facilities. Plus, the breakfast offered was delicious, giving me a great start to my day.
