I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which featured a charming garden and a cozy breakfast room that opened into a nice courtyard. The staff were incredibly helpful, and I appreciated the delicious food served in the restaurant. However, I noticed that the rooms could use some updates, especially those facing the busy street, which made for a noisy night. Overall, it was comfortable enough, but there's room for improvement.
