I had a great stay overall. The service was excellent, and the staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout my visit. They really made the experience enjoyable. Rooms are spacious and beds are comfortable. The only area that could use improvement is the breakfast. The selection was very basic, mostly eggs and pork options, with limited healthier choices available. The fruit also did not seem very fresh. I think revamping the breakfast menu with fresher ingredients and more healthy variety would make the stay even better. Despite that, I would still recommend this hotel because the customer service was outstanding.
