The staff were exceptional, and the amenities that were provided were generous. We also had our room cleaned daily, and it was great to come in after a long day. The highlight of the stay was the breakfast spread. It was amazing (if you are interested in trying different cuisines), and we looked forward to it before we got our day started. Unfortunately we did not take advantage of the afternoon and early evening offerings since we were out all day; however, we would love to stay here again and hopefully take advantage of those benefits.

Comfortable beds and pillows, amazing shower, wonderful amenities and super friendly staff. Very convenient location for traveling and shopping. Only downside was breakfast which I only visited twice as they didn’t have a lot of options for oatmeal/baked goods/ yogurt lovers. Both days the one option of plain yogurt was at the bottom of the dish, no baked goods except for mini plain croissants and I had to ask both times for staff to replenish both the granola and yogurt dishes. Not a deal braker, still amazing hotel and we will gladly visit again!
