Amazing Boutique Experience

central location efficient staff birthday surprise

My stay lasted four nights. The location is central and near key attractions. The staff assisted with taxis and tours, simplifying my trip. Upon learning it was my birthday, the staff left a bottle of white wine in my room. Things run efficiently in this boutique hotel.

The room I occupied was small, and a beam crossed the ceiling. I had to duck to avoid hitting my head.
