What a fantastic stay! The hotel is wonderfully located, very close to downtown and everything you need. The rooms are cozy and spotless, and the staff is so welcoming. I wish the dining options were a bit more varied though. The facilities, especially the pool, are top-notch. The price is fair, but additional charges for certain amenities are a drawback.
