Disappointed overall.
Pros:

The view .

Cons:

(1) no assistance with luggage despite 2 young men at reception. I asked for help with my 3 suitcases and they declined and said I had to do it alone. I am 64 and that was an absolute deal breaker. (2) Despite the room being recently refurbished the room had a wet dusty odour . The carpet was the issue and my sinus reacted and I could not sleep. It smelled it was cleaned and did not dry properly thereafter because when we asked to move next room was the same. I suggest you redo it with proper carpet company.

I will recommend it to anyone.
Pros:

Serenity of the surroundings and the spacious room and bathroom.
The cleanliness.
The quality of the bedding.
The complimentary bottle of wine was of great quality.
Proximity to decent restaurants.
When arriving, we were a bit late for check-in, but a gentleman was there to receive us, and he was kind, helpful and professional.

Cons:

When giving back my key on the last morning (checking out), the reception lady did not even ask me how our stay was.
She was busy with something behind the desk; it looked like she was maybe/ probably on her phone. I thought it was a bit unprofessional.
