8.2/10

My stay at the hotel was lovely! The rooms were super comfortable, had great views, and were nicely decorated. However, there was a bit of noise from a family party one evening, and there was a funny smell like someone cooking in the room. The small sectioned-off patio area for each room was a nice touch, giving me a little outdoor space to relax.
