The staff members were friendly, very helpful and wonderful ambassadors for the hotel. Comfortable room, the evening food was tasty, hot and served very soon after ordering, also very nice wine!! Good choice of options for breakfast. All in all there was nothing more which we could have asked for from our stay and we would use this chain and especially this hotel again.
