Still Perfect

"We’ve been coming to this hotel for almost 10 years, and I have to say—this year feels completely different in the best way possible. The rooms are noticeably cleaner, and the reception area looks absolutely amazing such a beautiful upgrade.

I especially have to mention the Fire TV in the rooms. Whoever came up with that idea is brilliant!

The service was outstanding as always—friendly, attentive, and professional. And you truly can’t beat the location. It’s simply the best."
