The hotel had very clean rooms, allowed us to check in early, and had seating and a balcony with all amenities, making our stay spectacular. The fresh linen, very comfortable beds, and cushions added to the overall comfort. However, the service was mediocre with some oversight in providing all relevant blankets. The staff, on the other hand, were very friendly and professional. The location was perfect and easy to find, providing a pleasant venue for morning jogs. The dining experience was good overall, but it didn't entirely match the general experience. The facilities were well-equipped, although not perfect. The price was reasonable in consideration of what was offered.
