This is a wonderful oasis for a traveler, whether on holiday or on business. The building is very clean, the staff is lovely, and the breakfast is generous and very, very good. It is safe, clean, and quiet, with a nice workout room too. I have been there several times, and I can sleep knowing that the grounds are safe and clean, and the staff is attentive and professional.
