The hotel staff were helpful. I appreciated that the restaurant offered a variety of options. Afternoon tea time was a nice touch, I liked the snacks. The room cleaning service did a good job.
The room's tree in the bathroom seemed strange. The individual water heater was quirky. Some areas need attention, I noticed the need for some maintenance.
