a pleasant stay

friendly staffbirthday surprisecomplimentary wineawkward armoirelittle roomcramped counter
The staff were very friendly and helpful. they placed balloons and cake in our room because it was my partner's birthday. a bottle of wine was in our room when we arrived. Also some fruit and candles. there was also a fridge, so we could have our own wine.
our suite was large, but poorly laid out with space in all the wrong places. the bedroom was small, so it was difficult to walk around the bed when a suitcase was set up on the luggage bench. two sinks crowded the counter in the bathroom, leaving no counter space. it made it difficult to use the small makeup mirror.
