Staff was the kindest, most welcoming hotel staff I have ever come across. We had a mix up with our rooms in the beginning and they fixed it immediately and apologized a hundred times. They complimented our outfits at checkout, like come on!!! Rooms were clean, they have a nice bar and a small convenience store. 10/10. Would recommend.
