Staying at this hotel was a great experience overall. The rooms were beautifully decorated, clean, and comfortable, perfect for a family of 4. The service was attentive and friendly, although there was a slight hiccup when I wanted to check out early. The location was very convenient for exploring the area, but not the most appealing visually. The dining options offered some nice pastries and coffee in the lobby. The facilities were well-maintained and added to the comfort of my stay.
