"Very beautiful place. It's well-decorated (I love the piano in the lobby), the staff were super friendly, and the complimentary water and wafers were a lovely touch (especially after a long trip). I wish I had more time to stay and enjoy the amenities (but it was just a night's stay). The parking is ample and free (which was nice), but just be careful with the narrow roads when coming here. Overall, a very lovely stay."
