Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience. The room was incredibly comfortable with a very silent atmosphere, which I found to be a great touch. The decor of the Junior Suite King was truly spectacular. However, the walls were a bit thin. The service was exceptional, and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. The location was superb, making it easy to explore various attractions on foot. The dining experience was more than satisfactory, leaving me impressed. Overall, a memorable stay with some minor room issues.
