The staff members were all very friendly. They all seemed to be working hard. The room I had was lovely.

Upon arrival, I noticed a strange man inside. He just sat staring at people. This made my partner and me quite uncomfortable. The receptionist mentioned this happens often, maybe security should escort him out!?!
