Convenient Kitchenette

The kitchenette in our 1-Bedroom Park View Suite was well-equipped with everything I needed to prepare meals during our stay. Having the ability to make breakfast and snacks was not only fun but also an excellent way to save on dining expenses while enjoying quality time with family.
