great range secured parking smooth stay tired room brown furniture limited replenishments
The breakfast selection offered a great range. i especially enjoyed dining in the cloisters each morning. secured parking was available, a big plus. anna and donna at the front desk. I thank them.
The room felt a bit tired. the furniture had chipped brown spots. only four tea bags were provided for the entire stay and one bottle of water. there were no replenishments. I found this inconvenient.

historic Getaway, dreamy

superior room water pressure historical ambiance
the room, superior double or twin room, had a great size. I found good water pressure in the shower, that was very pleasant. I could walk to most local spots easily and enjoyed the proximity. The historical ambiance of the building, a convent previously, had charm.
i noticed a small stain on the bathroom tile, a minor thing really.

outdated air conditioning noisy system
I was quite annoyed by a couple of things. the outdated air conditioning struggled to keep the room cool. (it was like a sauna!) the noise was unbearable, and they didn't offer a real solution. the breakfast was another letdown. It lacked fresh options for the price.
