"The minute we stepped foot in the building the hospitality was so sweet. From the front desk clerk to even the manager to the girls upstairs in the pool deck. My family felt very welcomed. The hotel was so close to everything! So taking the Ubers and taxi was not expensive at all. My son fell in love with a sweet dog that would not leave the front of the building and looks that the staff and care for him as well. It was the sweetest thing. Our room was a vibe! Very beautiful decoration all around from outside of building to the rooms. Breakfast was delicious and very cultural.
