The room was immaculately clean and it was very sizeable. The big jacuzzi was therapeutical after a few consecutive days of intense hiking. Staff made good restaurant recommendations. I verified through my google app. They provided coupon for ten percent off. Oysters in season was a bonus. Lovely stroll through the city with lots of nice shops and cafes. Definitely would stay here again.
