Swap slept well and very close to where I had to have some minor ear surgery done so it worked out p
Pros:

I truly appreciated how the breakfast was delivered to the room. But at the same time, I think I’ll pass on breakfast and go out. Everything else was awesome.

Cons:

I truly enjoyed the petite cake room with a private balcony. Everything about the room was quite nice. Bathroom included no complaints and thank you.
