Tyylikäs ja erittäin kodikas hotelli kaupungin sydämessä, ensiluokkainen palvelu ja sikaribaari
Pros:

Hotelli tarjosi erinomaisen kokemuksen juhliessamme hääpäivää ja syntymäpäivää – saimme huoneen heti saavuttuamme ja se korotettiin juhlan kunniaksi suurempaan, mikä teki vierailustamme erityisen onnistuneen. Hotellin henkilökunta oli erittäin ystävällistä ja sikaribaari ja sen henkilökunta kruunasivat illan. Tällä kertaa emme ehtineet hotellin ravintolaan, mutta maistoimme sikaribaarin listalta muutamia herkkuja, jotka olivat täydellisiä. Tämä oli toinen kerta hotellissa, aamiaisravintola on myös aivan upea. Tulemme ehdottomasti pian takaisin!
