Besides the great location, we were most impressed by the excellent roof top breakfast ! Especially Michelle and her team. when I did research about the hotel, I did see some negative comments and made me hesitant. But Michelle and her team won my heart. We were so glad we chose this great hotel. They not only did great job to serve wonderful breakfast. But also showed us their enthusiasm and made you feel so welcomed! Michele is also a nature lover. She told us about thousands of birds flying by every morning. That becomes our great memory! Michele and her team always took extra steps to help you to answer your questions,providing insight and also packed us breakfast when we had an early fight . The hotel is great because of their wonderful people! We will definitely back in the near future! Thank you!
