Excellent hotel. Large spacious room with huge bathroom and a balcony. Staff was very friendly and professional. The reason I did not give it a 5 was the air conditioner in our room was extremely noisy in start up and shut down. To the point that it made you jump! Not great at 3am.

Fix the AC noise issue

The AC unit in my room was very noisy and woke me up each time it turned on. I had the same problem in my previous stay at this property in a different room.
