the food in the restaurant tasted delicious. the staff were courteous. sitting outside in the courtyard with the flowers was nice. adequate free parking was available at the rear of the hotel.
the first night i had a room overlooking the main street. the traffic noise made it impossible to sleep. i complained in the morning and quickly got another room at the back.
