The Hotel
Everything about the property was excellent — clean, comfortable, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped, with a great atmosphere and attentive service. The only small detail worth noting is that there was no hair balsam/conditioner provided. Other than that, the stay was truly perfect.
