10/10 Excellent
"Staff was amazing. I called the night before asking about extending and found out we got upgraded because there was a booking issue ! super sweet staff. only used the spa in the room once , shower water pressure wasn’t good but that’s to be expected at a hotel! bed was comfortable. i love the fact its a keyless entry door. walls are thin but that’s to be expected. Husband and i will definitely be back! so glad we were able to spend our honeymoon here!"
