the location was perfect for the family event i attended! the room offered ample space, including storage for clothes. i especially appreciated the tea and coffee facilities. the bedding and towels were clean and fresh. the hotel has on-site dining with a restaurant and bar that was very popular, it's true.
I noticed the pillows were a bit too soft. Firmer pillows would definitely improve the sleep quality !
