"The staff was amazing!"

The staff was outstanding. I have traveled the world for over 40 years and this team would rank #1! At every level, I found real kindness, warmth and truth. The big thing is they made you feel like they cared and warmth was everywhere. Late evening, I asked one staffer "How are doing?". She smiled and said "Im tired". The simple truth made me feel a million times better than the fake smiles and "I'm great" you get elsewhere. This whole team was great.
