Bonjour Pamelina, Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the cleanliness of our rooms and property and recognized the safety procedures we have in place. Thank you for letting us know about the mini-bar sensitivity in your room, we will check on a sensor as it should react only on items being removed or shifted. As for the fee for a refrigerator and a microwave, our apologies for any inconvenience it may cause, however with a significant request increase for those items we have to apply a delivery fee. Alternatively, our guests are welcome to use food and beverage options available at our bar and restaurant. We hope to welcome you back in the future!

The room was beautiful and the staff greeting us were wonderful. The exercise facility was clean and had all options from free weights to machines to cardio. Location is excellent. Cleaning staff was sub par. They missed our first day and we had to call twice for fresh towels and amenities on day 2. Day three was check out and they attempted to service our room 2 hours prior to check out while we were still in the room.

There were definitely some updates to the facility but rooms still show signs of age and wearing. The location and staff are all great and definitely make this a note worthy hotel.
