Pros:

This hotel felt luxurious and I was so very comfortable! So many things are included, like morning croissants, soft drinks, happy hour, and even laundry. The bed was heavenly, and the bathtub was a treat. The staff are so very kind and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. It feels like a 5-star hotel for certain!
