The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the towels were soft and fluffy. I appreciated receiving a text message asking if I needed anything during my stay, it was convenient to be able to communicate that way. Both the front desk staff and the breakfast staff were friendly, and it made me feel I’d like to stay again. Thank you. :)

The hotel’s onsite restaurant was closed, which initially left us in a difficult situation. However, the staff kindly confirmed the chef’s availability and arranged for us to enjoy the dishes we wanted at another restaurant’s table. I was truly impressed by the hotel’s hospitality.
