Everything was exactly as described. The suite was a home away from home with all the amenities. The staff that I interacted with were friendly and polite. The only issue was that breakfast needed replenishing around 8 am. They were out of the hot items (sausage, eggs, and breakfast sandwiches). It was not a major problem due to the other items that were served and they were healthier :-)
