The hotel is just beautiful. Every single detail was thought about from the fireplace, decor and the iPads in each room that control everything. We stayed in a one bedroom suite with a gorgeous bathroom and could not have been happier. It is a 10-15 minute walk from the center and we loved the location.

It's fine with no hairdryer, no safe, no TV. Need floor towel for bathroom, it is impossible to shower without the whole bathroom floor flooding. Checkin with tablet was problematic, one of two available tablets worked.
