    I had a very pleasant experience after spending a couple of nights at this hotel! The first thing that impressed me was the politeness and helpfulness of the staff. The room was extremely clean, smelled fresh, and the bed linen was so crisp and perfectly ironed. We were visited a couple of times by very polite and friendly housekeepers who cleaned the room impeccably. The room also had all the amenities needed for a longer stay. I definitely recommend this hotel!
