The staff was very cordial and friendly. The hotel is very nice and was well decorated for Christmas. The room was very clean and well appointed. I liked the location as it was very close to everything you would want to see, but not too close as to be caught up in the crazy hustle and bustle.

This place was amazing. Everyone was so friendly and professional. Breakfast was all little spendy however there were so many choices. Wish I could have eaten more. The pool was down, could still use sauna. Room was beautiful. Loved having a fridge, robes and slippers! Lots of little extras that just made us feel special. Thank you for such an enjoyable stay!

The conference room and lunch were well received by everyone, and the staff kept the tea and coffee flowing with grea...
