I stayed here for two nights in November. I had an amazing experience nothing could have been better. The staff was so helpful and friendly. They even read my comments about a bath tub if possible and telephoned me to clarify and then changed my room to be able to have one on arrival. Little cute welcome nail polish was a nice touch. Room was small but bed comfy with amazing wrap around balcony and windows. Bathroom was huge and amazing ! Everything was spotless clean. Would highly recommend and will be staying here from now on ! You can’t beat location or service!
