A beautiful hotel! I loved everything about it. The windows open and have screens for fresh air. The bedding was nice and bed was comfy. The attached restaurant and bar offered delicious food and unique cocktails. Service was attentive and sharp. On the corner you’ll find a sweetshop with coffee and pastries. I took mine back and sat out in the open courtyard of a morning. Totally enjoyed my stay and will return.

Parking was a bit difficult and cost $18 per night. The hotel is clearly converted from older days, with a funky small elevator. The hallway was charmingly decorated with old movie star framed portraits and there were beautiful stain glass windows and chandeliers downstairs. The coffee and sweets shop next door was a necessity because there is NO coffee or tea served at the hotel or in the rooms. We had to get dressed and go next door in the morning. Since it closes at 5 pm. No evening hot beverages available. This means I would never stay at this hotel again. I am a serious beginning and end of my day coffee drinker. The coffees and pastries next door were great, by the way!
