A Superb Stay!
stellar locationconvenient driveeasy traveltotal breeze
This location is stellar. A ten minute walk to the chocolate museum? Yes, please! The convenient fifteen minute drive to the airport made my holiday start quickly. This made traveling a total breeze and very fun.
The hotel did not provide complimentary water bottles in the room. I had to purchase some from a vending machine, a minor inconvenience.
