Chateau Victoria Hotel and Suites
The hotel staff went above and beyond to make the stay pleasant. We were also impressed with hotel bellboy service who built Lego copy of the hotel in his free time. Amenities were clean and cozy. My room was on the 12th floor with the breathtaking view of the sunrise every morning.
