"We stayed in the suite with the City View. It was beautiful. The views were amazing the room was perfect I have absolutely no complaints. Staff were very friendly and I especially loved how close it was to the train station and within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. We would definitely stay here again. Don't listen to the people who gave one star I read a bunch of those and was discouraged when we got to the property I realized they were just a bunch of complaining Karen's. Everything was perfect"

"Staff was exceptionally helpful, and kind. Breakfast had lots of options, and overall was delicious. My only complaint would be with the coffee. I ordered an americano and the brought a big pot full of coffee. It was weak and didn’t have the same bite (it might be better to just make a cup). The location was ideal for being in the heart of things. With a stocked fridge which was all complimentary, including a little bottle of prosecco!"
