The hotel was beautiful. The fan in my room was loud but I didn’t want to change rooms because I am lazy. There was also gum in the cups for coffee that I didn’t notice until after I used the cup. Not ur fault. Everything was good otherwise. Nice bed and bedding. Good food I ordered at the restaurant and walking around was some good options for coffee and food.

All of the staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and professional. There was an issue with our room (bad smell). The hotel manager Shai immediately upgraded us to another room and the issue was solved. Beds were comfortable and cozy, bathroom was spacious, clean, with nice amenities. Would highly recommend!

The room was extremely nice and quiet. The bed was ultra comfortable. The area was walking distance to the downtown restaurant area. One thing: we could not increase the tv volume. We are older and hard of hearing. We assume it was set up to avoid loudness for the other guests but the volume was too low.
