Really good Stay!

helpful staffgreat attentivenessdisruptive noise
My recent visit was AMAZING! I found every detail a testament to luxury and perfect hospitality. The staff were very professional and helpful. I particularly appreciated the attentiveness to our needs.
My room faced a narrow street, and tourist noise at night was disruptive. Even with double-glazed windows, the sound carried into the room. It was a challenge to get a quiet night's sleep.
