An excellent hotel in the centre of town. The rooms are very well appointed and the decor throughout the hotel is stunning but comfortable. Parking is by valet with in and out privileges. There is a small bar in the lobby but no restaurant or pool.

The rooms are just a tad bigger and everything is well maintained. Nice to have a breakfast room in the morning. We got good use from the pool.
