​The check-in was a pleasure. Kristen was phenomenal, very helpful and professional. Well done :) ​The hotel was really nice. The only low point was that the room was quite cold. The heating system didn't start till later. When we arrived, the room was cold. But, taking this aside, the stay was amazing.
