Cons:

Not much super hot water, and no mini fridge.

FABULOUS HOTEL!
Pros:

There are so many wonderful things to love about this hotel. The staff truly goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome and ensure you have everything you need. Our room was terrific, and the breakfast was amazing—seriously, it felt gourmet! The location is fabulous as well. I would absolutely recommend staying here.

Cons:

The only thing that didn’t quite meet my expectations was the bed. It was a little too firm for my taste. I’m sure a lot of people would love it, but personally, I prefer a softer mattress. That said, it certainly wouldn’t keep me from recommending the hotel!
