"Mt family and I secured 3 rooms in this hotel and we were extremely happy with it. The hotel was so conveniently located and very beautiful. My husband doesn't usually comment on hotels but he said he loved this one. The beds were super comfy and the rooms were so clean and just gorgeous. There are taxis right outside the side entrance if needed and hotel staff were very helpful with everything we asked about. Only recommendations would be to include robes for your guests and make-up mirrors...
