Wonderful stay in a beautiful setting. Super comfortable bed with lovely linens. Tastefully decorated with plush carpets, well-appointed and quiet. Roomy bathroom is scrupulously clean. Truly delicious breakfast in a sunfilled room. A couple of issues were acknowledged and without hesitation I was offered sincere apologies and compensation. I will definitely be back.
