I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were very spacious with comfortable warm beds and had a wonderful view. The service was top-notch, from the pleasant staff to the excellent service. The location was stunning with great facilities, but a bit far from the waterfront. The dining experience was delicious, but extra charges applied. Overall, a fantastic hotel with a few minor downsides.
