I absolutely love this place! The staff members are always incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. I stayed in the Deluxe King room, which was exceptionally clean, spacious, and featured a wonderfully soothing aesthetic. The amenities were a highlight as well—the complimentary snack, coffee, tea, and wine were fantastic. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable getaway.
