We arrived early, and we expected to have to store our bags and walk around for hours, but the room was ready for us. Also I ordered the rose petals, and they did such a great job. They have a great breakfast. They ordered us a cab do we could catch an early plane. The cab driver came looking for us do that we didn’t have to wait outside at 3:45 am.

The only downside was the breakfast, the buffet offered a lot of options but the quality was not great. The staff was excellent-from the people at reception to the concierge, everyone was super helpful and polite. Location is terrific and the room was very comfortable with a lovely view over the old town.
