This is my boyfriends account but gosh I’m so picky with my cleanliness, with the aesthetics of a room and the area that surrounds the place I’ll be staying at and this place, this hotel everything was just perfect. Yummy morning pancakes, made me feel like I was in 5th grade again. My room was beautiful and the ambient lighting in there was perfect! Reminded me of a hotel I stayed at in Switzerland. Oh! and view of that little bank was amazing! Everything was picture perfect! In the hotel and also outside! HIGHLY RECOMMEND 😊

Nice facility, someone enter room while I was out.

The only issue I have with the stay is that while I was out of the room for business, someone entered the room. I didn't have anything of value left in the room but clothes, since I have been traveling for business for years. All it looked like they did was reset the room. The window shade was moved and tv was turned off. But when they entered and saw my bag they should have left the room.
