My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location was just perfect, not too far from downtown but still peaceful. The rooms were plain but very clean and nice, perfect for two people. The service was top-notch, especially the housekeeping and shuttle service. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown, but overall, it was a great value for money.

I stayed at this hotel, and it was such a pleasant experience overall. The rooms, although lacking windows, featured a screen door leading to a semi-private porch with a garden view, which was lovely. The only downside was that it could get a bit warm in the room on cooler nights.
