Great stay in fantastic location.
Pros:

We arrived in the morning and we were able to leave are laguage before official check-in time. We were also allowed to leave our bags on a check out day. No extra charge for this. The staff was professional, helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good for a value, reasonable variety of food.

Cons:

The breakfast room was very dark and coffee wasn't nice at all.
