With the covid situation, it was clear the hotel was doing alot to keep everyone safe. Also wanted to give a shoutout to the night staff (mainly the lady receptionist with glasses who I didn't get her name) who was very helpful during our visit and extelremly professional even while dealing with some unruly guests.

The customer service from the Novotel team was excellent and they were all very polite and kind. The room was massive and had everything we needed. Also comes with a pool and spa which is cool. So overall it’s great if your looking for a hotel for a day or even a week I would highly recommend this one.
