Great hotel, lovely staff but visit ruined by poor air conditioning
Pros:

Room fine. Lovely building. Great staff and wonderful food ( albeit a bit pricey).

Cons:

Sadly the promised air conditioning didn’t deliver. The room we were in (401) was unbearably hot. The ancient air conditioning was pathetic. On complaining at reception a fan was provided all that did was circulate hot air and generate noise.
