I found a super clean room with the best bed I've slept in for years. The staff were very friendly, and the location was spot on for exploring the area! The hotel had a beautiful atmosphere, and everything was very inviting.
My room was well-equipped and roomy. the duvet felt a bit heavy for the time of year. The mattress could also have been a bit harder for better comfort.
