Loved the Continental breakfast! The grounds were lovely, tiny pool slash whirlpool was perfect after a long day of walking. A few blocks off the crazy which made for quieter nights but also convenient for getting to new town. Would definitely stay again. Would suggest the property add a full length mirror or a second mirror for the Library at least.

Late night
Even though it was not the greatest weather we did our best to enjoy our trip. We got late at night, we had flight delays but the hotel had a mailbox and we pick up an envelope with all the information and we were able to get in to our room.
