I stayed for one night and found the check-in process seamless. the friendly staff greeted me warmly and the lobby was beautifully decorated. the room was clean and spacious. the breakfast buffet had many options. The food quality was amazing!!!

i booked two rooms and they provided limited toiletries in both bathrooms. slippers, toothbrushes, hair conditioner, and shaving sets were available only upon request. i think this is unfair since we paid full price for the rooms.
