Parfait !
L'ensemble du personnel est très agréable. On se sent comme à la maison, ce qui est très agréable quand on voyage seule pour le travail. L'hôtel est très bien tenu, propre et calme. Il est facile à trouver et il y a de nombreuses places de stationnement gratuites. Enfin, on y dine très bien. Bref, si mes obligations professionnelles m'amènent à nouveau dans le coin, c'est dans cet hôtel que je descendrais.
