The lavender sachets are amazing. I was told by misinformed staff that there is no breakfast option, so staff education Can be improved. Overall remarkably courteous and helpful staff.

Clean, quiet, good area. Gym is great! Overall very good. The in room coffee was bland, and I wished the onsite cafe opened earlier. However, this is me nitpicking, and I’d stay again for sure!

The staff was great but the rooms on the lower floors do not get much sunlight. They can be very dark and one suggestion my wife found it really difficult applying her makeup due to the lack of light. Each room should be able to order a makeup mirror from the hotel to make up for the lack of light. Also the pillows were lumpy and not soft. Overall the hotel and room were clean and the staff were all very attentive and helpful.
