I found a refrigerator outside the room very useful. Fresh milk was thoughtfully provided. The bed was heavenly and I enjoyed an excellent breakfast.
There was a very slight delay at check-in, but it was quickly resolved

Acceptable Stay. Some Issues Noted.
room temperatureslow service
The room temperature was difficult to regulate. I found the lack of clear signage to nearby attractions problematic. The breakfast service was slow. I waited an unacceptable amount of time for a simple order. These issues detracted from an otherwise satisfactory visit.
