I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were superb and had everything I needed and more. The service was excellent, and the staff went above and beyond to assist me. While the location was a bit outside the city center, it offered a peaceful retreat. The dining experience was fantastic, offering a lavish spread of options. The facilities were top-notch, especially the fitness room.
