The location is really fantastic and i would highly recommend this hotel you are looking for a good small boutique hotel. Additionally the staff are excellent and concierge set the scene as we arrived - wonderfully friendly. The bathrooms are luxurious, the bar is very pleasant and beautiful fluffly towels are essential to me travelling. The restaurant is fine.
