Great hotel and the hotel stay is not expensive considering the area. It's one of the nicer areas. My only complaint is the prices in the hotel are about double what you pay at local stores. I would buy more at the hotel if they dropped the prices. But you are paying for convience I guess.

This hotel view a stunning view and top-notch customer service! To really shine, it would be great to add a special flair to the bar and restaurant. From what I’ve noticed, the restaurant isn’t directly part of the hotel, and the bar had a bit of trouble with credit cards. Still, I’d love to come back with my family! The staff were incredibly friendly, and the place was spotless.
