I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The rooms were clean and comfy, the staff was super friendly, and the location was great. However, the dining experience could use some improvement regarding breakfast options. The facilities were well-maintained and enjoyable. The price was reasonable, but there were a few minor drawbacks.
