We loved the location. The courtyard with pool was very beautiful. The people working were friendly and happy. We would have loved a breakfast with more variety. Also it was louder in our room that we would have liked; hear cleaners very early rolling carts, and the walls are thin.

Large room with great view.

The room was large and the view was amazing. The property was conveniently located. However, it’s clearly an older building and there was some sort of incredibly loud machine that cycled on and off all night. In addition, the heater in our room was broken. They did bring us extra blankets and the next day offered us the option of a space heater or a change of rooms. Overall, we enjoyed the experience and these were minor inconveniences.
