Very well located. Nice and unique decoration of the house. Rooms are very pretty. Staff is very kind. Service is good. The manager pay attention to any claim. Breakfast was good. There is a fridge, tea and coffee in the share areas.We enjoyed our stay!!
I would just recommend to change the beds upstairs, as they are very hard and uncomfortable ( downstair our bed was better).
