Wonderful experience

I only stayed for 2 days, had breakfast and even though I was the first to walk in early in the morning, I was greeted with warm smiles and hospitality. I had a knee injury and the staff quickly prepared an ice bag for me. The room was nicely decorated, very clean, and the bed was comfortable as well. Nespresso coffee in the room was wonderful. I look forward to staying at the Vanguard again.
