I had a pleasant stay at the hotel overall. The rooms were comfortable and well-appointed, overlooking the street which added to the charm. The service was outstanding, going above and beyond to help with various arrangements. The location, although a bit far from downtown, was perfect for airport convenience. The dining options, while limited for vegetarians, were tasty and provided a good start to the day.
