Des Lux Hotel

Des Lux Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice and unique hotel. Staff was friendly, breakfast was good, room was spacious with nice tall ceilings, and bed was comfortable. It felt like the hotel could use a refresh (or the refresh in the room’s bathroom was a bit sloppy) and their TV system was very laggy. Nice stay overall though! "
