"It was a beautiful hotel, staff was friendly, the room was a good size, tastefully decorated and I so loved the green doors! The room was very clean and the bathroom was clean and specious. We wish that it had a little more space to put our clothes away and I had to ask for a suite case stand, and that worked okay. The stand was not in the room. However it wasn’t a big deal. I called for stand and extra blanket and it took very little time to receive my request. Oh and the hotel is very quiet...
