The accommodation was wonderful. Narell was helpful with clear instruction and Melissa went above and beyond to ensure we could get some laundry done and book us a recommended restaurant for dinner. I didn’t catch his name but we’re also very grateful to a young man who helped carry our luggage upstairs.
