Although this is a hotel the rooms are set up like apartments with a kitchen area, dinning room area and living room area with a bedroom and a public bathroom and bathroom in the master bedroom. The kitchen was cool but there was no conventional oven nor was there a microwave over for heating up your food.

The staff was great although some do not speak English. I did have a few complaints, there is a private garage but it is very small and I have a big SYV so it was difficult to maneuver. The absence of a microwave means you can't heat up leftovers unless you put them on the stove. Finally I got hit with the IBITS tax which after 3 days was pretty steep.
Over all I enjoyed the experience, the location, it was quiet the facility is immaculate and I felt like I was home when I was there.
