I was looking forward to a relaxing anniversary stay, but unfortunately, the room didn't meet my expectations. The lack of a spa tub was a big disappointment, despite my special request due to the occasion. On the positive side, the hotel staff were welcoming and helpful, which made the stay more pleasant. However, the location was not ideal, with some issues related to the entry information being incorrect and cleanliness concerns. The dining experience lacked variety, although the waffles were a nice touch. Overall, the facilities were decent but could use some improvement.
