I only stayed one night, however I would definitely come back and hope to be back soon. The bed was exceedingly comfortable and the staff were so helpful; they went out of their way to make my visit enjoyable and easier. (There is festival on and taxis are hard to get, so their manager drove me to an appointment, personally). The location is perfect too, so close to everything you could want. Thanks guys for an amazing stay.
