Great intimate hotel with a nice vibe and perfect location for walking. Restaurant was outstanding, staff was very helpful and friendly. My only concern was that there were not really any places dedicated to put suitcases in the room. We had to put them on the floor which was a bit inconvenient, but would not stop me from staying there again - a minor inconvenience.

Nice place to stay. The air con in the room was terrible. It was set at 30 degrees and could only be changed by telling the front office staff. Made no sense at all. Great coffee, but both out breakfast meals were served cold. Disappointing.
