The staff were friendly and efficient, and the location was brilliant with incredible views of the river. It was just a short stroll to the shops, restaurants, and the casino. The nighttime views of the city were stunning, and seeing the hot air balloons rise in the morning was an absolute treat. We had a fantastic stay—thank you!
