Good stay as always
Pros:

Ambience, and good breakfast. Very friendly staff

Cons:

Very bad soundproofing. There was a bunch of insensitive guests shouting at 1 am in the morning. Luckily the staff rectified the issue immediately after i called. But i felt like this could’ve been avoided if the sound proofing was better.
