Small luxuries = great stay
Fantastic customer service from the staff helping me to check in. Rooms are efficient and not large, but no skimping on the comfort and general luxuriousness. Personal fave was the School of Life books on the shelf above my bed and the solfeggio frequencies connected to a colorscape to help me wind down. The breakfast buffet is outrageously great.
