I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with clean and spacious rooms that made me feel comfortable right away. The breakfast was a real treat, offering plenty of delicious options that I looked forward to each morning. I loved that everything was spotless, and I can't overstate how nice it was to have a peaceful environment to relax in after a busy day. However, while the dining experience was generally enjoyable, I didn’t appreciate that I wasn’t offered a second coffee. Overall, great value for the quality provided.
