A Wonderful, Cute Stay!

large room fine view quiet area soft bathrobes
My room was large and super comfortable. I had a beautiful view too! The hotel is a short walk from the city center, yet it's located in a quiet area. This was a great bonus. I loved the roll-top bath in the bathroom and the super soft bathrobes that were provided. Breakfast was a total WOW-Lovely and exquisite!
The showerhead was overhead and not working well! The taps were very stiff, so regulating the shower temperature was difficult.

Wonderful Stay with excellent features!

helpful staff convenient location fresh options
The staff were very helpful. I found the location quite convenient. The breakfast was a real treat with fresh options (i loved the fresh fruit!). I particularly appreciated the quiet and private setting that allowed for relaxation.
Unfortunately, the shower temperature was difficult to regulate. It was tricky to get the water to a consistent comfortable level so I had to be quick.
