Beautiful building , but unfortunately it seems understaffed . Room was poorly cleaned ( or not cleaned at all). Staff did not seem to care much . I will say that the staff at the cafe were lovely . Absolutely loved the size of the rooms and the actual building, but would not come back since customer service was truly lacking , and cleanliness .
