Absolute Gem of a Hotel
Pros:

Room 11 2nd floor with front view. Compact. Comfy bed. Room service every day. Clean towels. Nice toiletries. Good size bathroom. Great breakfast. Very efficient and friendly staff.

We loved it here, so being very very picky. No sockets by bed. Portable fan in the room quite noisy.

This was our third stay at this hotel, so knew what to expect, so hopefully will go back next year.
Pros:

All of the staff were welcoming, helpful and polite.
Flexible breakfast times, so didn't need to book exact time in the two hour slot that was offered between 7 and 9 am. I ordered an omelette which was delicious.
