It’s also incredibly convenient for dining, shopping, and exploring nearby attractions. The breakfast buffet was exceptional—wide variety and delicious quality. I especially loved the truffle-infused poached egg; it was rich, creamy, and unforgettable. There were plenty of other egg preparations too, all well-executed. On top of that, the service from Sylvia stood out—she was attentive, friendly, and responded to every request promptly.
