Was good.
Liked : The location was excellent, check-in and check-out were easy, it's a perfect place for a weekend getaway, but for a business trip it's very noisy in the morning, the cleaning ladies play very loud music while they work.
The food at the restaurant is delicious, for me is one of the best in town. -
