One of the better hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The shower head was a rainful, but actually with enough pressure to wash your hair which is a rarity. The bed was also incredibly comfortable as well as the pillows. The air conditioning was top notch as well. Definitely would stay again and highly recommend
