There needs to be individual pricing for the breakfast. A charge of $60.00 for my wife and I was ridiculous as we only had coffee and 2 muffins each. There is no alternate choice and you cannot leave the hotel and go anywhere else. We are not...

The vegan salad dish in the restaurant was so good. My room had no hot water, and the taps were not running. I told a staff member who sent someone to fix it straight away. I liked how the staff met me outside with a towel and a drink on my arrival
