Stayed at this hotel recently and was really impressed with how beautiful and clean it was. The atmosphere was elegant, and everything felt well-maintained. The only downsides were that the layout was a bit confusing to navigate, and I wish there had been more clarity on what was included in our package. We weren’t always sure what amenities we had access to. That said, it was a great experience overall, and I’d still recommend it for a comfortable stay!
