Acceptable stay

cozy bed friendly staff room plan overpriced drinks
The bed was AMAZING!!! I found it so comfortable and cozy. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful .
Finding my room was difficult and I think the hotel should provide a printed plan. It seemed like a rabbit warren. The food was just ok and not somewhere I would choose as a restaurant. Drinks are overpriced.
