Our stay was exceptional!
Cons:

The biscuits and frittata weren't up to the standards of the rest of the breakfast. We loved the overnight oats and fresh berries as well as the banana bread.

Hotel agradable y original
Pros:

Nos gustaron las habitaciones que eran originales y cómodas. Los edificios antiguos muy bien restaurados. El personal muy atento.

Cons:

El desayuno es correcto, pero se echa en falta algo más de variedad y productos calientes.
