helpful staff cute atmosphere ideal location

the staff was helpful and always wore a smile. the meal and bar areas looked super clean. the location was ideal for exploring nearby attractions (a real gem for travellers!).

the pillows in the room were not plump enough, and the bed's firmness did not suit me, which slightly affected my sleep quality.

our family room had comfortable beds and adequate space for us all. the room included blackout curtains and individual climate control, very important for a good night's rest. a safety deposit box was available inside the wardrobe.
