The breakfast was excellent, lots of a variety and well presented. We were leaving before the breakfast was available on our last day, they prepared us sandwiches that we picked up on our way out. It was a 20 minute walk to shops and restaurants, the big mall is a 10 minutes away as well. The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful.

Although clear check in instructions had been sent by email beforehand, there was information in the lobby about how to contact a staff member. I utilized this, and the staff member was really nice and helpful. The breakfast set up, selection and staff member was fabulous! Having a vehicle is an asset to use this location.
