Really liked the breakfast and dinner options. The bar area and restaurant are beautiful and the staff friendly. Our room was spacious and clean. The bathroom lacked space for our things, with the only sink being a small pedestal style sink- no counter space. The room was quiet when the window was shut, but when open you could hear street noise. There is no AC, so the room can be warm in the Summer months, especially if you need to close the window to gain some quiet.
