What a hotel

An absolutely beautiful and immaculate hotel — I would absolutely and honestly look forward to staying again, so many little touches like a soft bathroom rug really made the place! You can tell they’ve been in n business for long when it comes to the hotel experience itself. There was some confusion in my end about a complimentary breakfast option and I didn’t feel it was handled/acknowledged particularly well by any of the staff that I engaged (I actually felt one of the more senior staff was rather rude). It didn’t spoil my stay as it was fundamentally not a big deal to pay for a service I wanted, but it had been a misleading “up sale” in writing (w/o being adequately acknowledged) and i asked for clarification of how to use the feature and wasn’t made aware that my room didn’t include it. Again, not a dealbreaker but I’d of had even more raving reviews if there’d been a more thoughtful or earnest acknowledgement of how I’d been misled
