My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very clean and matched our expectations. However, considering the price I paid, I expected more from them. The dining inside the hotel was a highlight with luxurious beds and linens, but it still fell short of justifying the high cost per night.

My stay at the hotel was wonderful. The rooms were spotless, with a huge, cloud-soft bed, jacuzzi tub for two, walk-in double shower, and two balconies to enjoy the lovely weather. They were beautifully appointed with quality furniture, but a bit smaller and darker than expected, so we could have used more light.
