However, the dining options could use some improvement, especially when it comes to breakfast variety. The location was very convenient for exploring nearby attractions, but parking was a bit of a hassle at times.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were immaculate and provided a comfortable atmosphere, while the pool area was a nice spot to relax.
