A Romantic Echo of Elegance

historical book comfortable bedding clean atmosphere
The hotel's historical book tells a wonderful story of glamour. Our Grand Beautiful Double Room included beautiful bedding that was comfortable. The housekeeping services were really good, and the entire facility maintained a very clean atmosphere. I found the staff to be attentive and always ready to help.
The elevator was out of order . Signage indicating this was not available. This led to some confusion as well as some inconvenience. I hope management improves this situation .
Dining

The restaurant staff works very hard, often managing breakfast shifts and then handling lunch service at the roof pool, with very nice dishes. The Caesar salad stood out as really good and the cheeseburger was also very good. I highly recommend both.
