An Anniversary Stay Beyond Compare

My husband and I celebrated our 20th anniversary here, and the staff made it special. A waiter remembered my husband's preference for decaf coffee! Champagne greeted us upon arrival and our room had balloons plus a chocolate treat and Prosecco. Bathroom amenities were plush and breakfast was delicious. We certainly plan to return.

Some days they were unavailable after 6 PM. This made planning spontaneous meals hard. Other than that the hotel was amazing.

the hotel location was acceptable, it allows easy access to many sites.

The bathroom layout was awkward and forced me to shower over the bathtub, and it also was a very problematic shower, the water alternated between freezing and warm. It never got hot during my showers.

The breakfast was really good with a good array of options. The hotel boasts a modern facility. I was impressed. My room was a Loft King Room City View Top Floor. It had a comfortable bed.

I experienced issues with the shower. Water alternated from freezing cold to warm in the same minute. The bathroom had a weird layout, and I ended up having to shower over the bathtub. The front desk seemed to misunderstand my request for foam pillows, they sent up a firmer down pillow instead.
