What a great time!
I had such a lovely time at this hotel. It was very clean, and every employee that I encountered was lovely. The restaurant in the hotel was absolutely delicious, which is so rare when you eat at a hotel. It was delicious, and I was very happy. Would highly recommend staying here. I miss that bed already.
