The hotel is very comfortable, the rooms are great , except the bathrooms are a little tight) . The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful and the food options are great. Breakfast had an amazing variety. What stood out was the service by 2 of the staff. First was Paul , we believe he is a manager. He stopped and asked us if we need Ed help as we waited for the front desk. We took a chance to see if the hotel may have a spare lanyard we could browse to save our phone for a trip. He went looking and got us one. The next person is Zeeshan. Zeeshan always has a smile on his face and very helpful at the restaurant.
