This hotel offer a super convenient location. The hotel is in historic building. The check-in at reception was friendly. Kevin was efficient after a long flight. We got an upgrade to slightly larger room and it was worth it for a bit more space. Breakfast have wide variety of options and food quality was great.
There was a small mix-up about the checkout time and the staff coming to room before it.
