Staying in the executive suite was perfect for our family, offering ample space with a big double bed in the main bedroom, a fold-out sofa bed, and an additional single bed in the lounge. While the view wasn't the best, having a separate bedroom, kitchenette, and a desk made our extended stay very comfortable. Ideal for a family of four with a king size bed for the parents and separate sleeping arrangements for the kids.
