This hotel was wonderful! The room was so spacious and bright. The shower was so relaxing and spacious. The toilet was separate from the bathroom which was a nice feature. The breakfast buffet was delicious, abundant and staff was friendly. The on site restaurant- Limoncello- was FANTASTIC! The waitstaff, especially Jen, was so friendly, informative and charismatic. My family and I would absolutely stay here again!!

Rooms- the rooms were very specious and well kept. Very high tech i.e. scanning key before selecting floor. Easy to request for room service and 'do not disturb' Easy control of the heating. Breakfast- excellent spread of food and choice. The best breakfast I have had for a long while. Minimum 10/10 rating. Staff- nothing to fault. Great level of service and staff very friendly and approachable. Very professional. Location- great to get into town very easily with cabs/Uber. I would highly recommend this hotel. I will definitely be returning.
