The room was so comfortable and clean. Staff at check-in and check-out was kind. Breakfast was fine - better Saturday than Sunday, but it wasn't bad. Our room didn't have hot water, which we brought to the front desk's attention on Saturday morning, but nothing was done about the issue.

Room and breakfast were great. The hotel bar needs more staffing as the bartenders always have a line of people waiting for drinks because they have to bartend, and run food to the tables.
