quick resolution lovely hosts convenient location cute staff

The staff was cute. i appreciated the quick resolution of a faulty socket in my room. Maintenance addressed it promptly! the hosts were indeed lovely. i found it easy to get around because of the hotel's location, convenient.

the room i stayed in did not have a table, made enjoying meals a bit challenging. it would have added to the room's functionality if a table were available. this small addition could enhance the experience considerably.
