Look no further this hotel is simply outstanding! FIVE STARS all around! From the service, to the location, to the restaurant and bar! Everything was just great... The decor and the marble floors are impressive. The room was spacious and comfortable and everything was within walking distance from the hotel. My favorite part of the hotel was most definitely the restaurant. I loved their food and the staff was phenomenal. They really made my experience amazing. I cannot wait to visit again with my family!
