I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which boasts a great location with easy access to local attractions. The rooms were spacious and modern, making for a comfortable experience. The dining options were decent, but I felt the breakfast could use a few more choices. The pool area was beautiful and inviting. While the price was fair for the overall experience, I wish the Wi-Fi had been complimentary.
