Staff were super friendly and really went out of their way to make you feel welcome. Room was lovely (bed was like sleeping on a cloud) and loved all the other spaces throughout the hotel to relax. The buffet breakfast was so great as well. The dining room was beautiful and they had such a great variety. Highly recommend!!"
