Great staff! The breakfast in the morning was just perfect and they accommodated me bringing up to my sleeping teenager in the room which was very nice of them. Beds were extremely comfortable. If it wasn’t for the heat that day it would have been a lovely stay. They did have fans in the rooms but no A/C on those top floors was a bit uncomfortable. We managed with a cool shower and went outside for the evening until it cooled off.
