Great room, wonderful Staff and lovely view
Pros:

Loved the hotel and everything about it. Ir. The breakfast was superb and much better than anything I expected. Staff wonderful, view exceptional and location better than we imagined

Cons:

I only have two small things I didn't like. I am quite old and found the bed too hard and the pillows not very nice. There could have been a bit more shelving for our clothes but not a big thing. The walk from our room to the restaurant was very far
