I found the room decor lovely and lively. The room was beautifully arranged (it really made an impression!). Cleaners refreshed the room when needed. It was very helpful. Upon arrival, my bags were taken upstairs, a very nice touch.

Acceptable Stay

decorated room comfy bed cooked breakfast ventilation fan constant noise difficult sleep
The room was nicely decorated. I found the beds and pillows comfortable. A cooked breakfast was included and was cooked perfectly with plenty of tea and coffee.
The noise from a ventilation fan was disturbing. It was located right outside my window and continued throughout the night. I found it difficult to sleep well due to this constant noise.
