I highly recommend it. The service at the entrance was excellent, the receptionists always had a smile on their face and were friendly. The breakfast is perfect and the service is too, not to mention the view this hotel offers. Our stay here was incredible, and we will definitely be back soon.

Rooms were nice but paying for parking was not expected. If i had known & that's my mistake I wouldn't have stayed there. I've never chosen to pay for parking. Other than that it was nice and clean. Staff was very friendly.
