    This is such a beautiful building and the room was quite spacious. It even had a 4 poster bed which was very comfortable. We checked in on Valentines day and to our surprise one of the staff delivered champagne and strawberries to our room! There...

    Pool, breakfast, quiet. We would have given the review a 10 but we found the decor and maintenance needed a little attention here and there. Nice restaurants locally and pool table a nice touch.
