9.8/10 Exceptional! (61 reviews)

The ancient building was retrofitted with all the modern elements without compromising its architectural features. The staff was friendly, helpful in suggesting restaurants and making sure we had everything we needed. As a bonus each morning there would be a box delivered to our door with sweet pastries and savory sandwiches from a local bakery! Fabulous start to our day combined with the complimentary coffee and teas already available.
