Pros:

Lovely greeting, helpful staff, ideal location.

Cons:

Awoken several times by people passing by as we overlooked the pedestrian walk and had the window open due to the heat. Wonderful view of the church, but would possibly have been quieter on the other side of the hotel.
Very good breakfast.
