attentive staff lovely touch well-prepared cocktails
i found the staff very attentive and they brought my luggage to my room upon arrival. the cocktails at the bar were well-prepared and enjoyable. the hotel provided a small "george" bear as a travel companion, a lovely touch.
The bathroom sensor light was a bit sensitive. It turned on with slight movements during the night.
