Friendly, safe and enjoyable stay
Pros:

I stayed in two different types of room and enjoyed both spaces. If I'd had more time I would have looked at all the fabulous images and historical information on the walls. The food was delicious and the staff were exceptionally supportive and friendly. Loved the location.
