The staff at this hotel are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The hotel itself is stunning, with a unique and captivating design. They have a 24/7 snack bar that offers a wide variety of delicious snacks. The waffles with fruit, Nutella, and powdered sugar were absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this hotel to my friends and family, and I’m already planning to return for another stay.
