I appreciated the hotel's proximity to key attractions. It made sightseeing easy. the two-bedroom suite provided ample space for our family. having a kitchen with a washer and dryer was very helpful for a longer stay.

the bedroom temperature was hard to regulate, it was too warm at night. the lounge area felt noticeably colder by comparison!
