warm staffdinner plansgood breakfastantique furniture

The staff were very warm. Hannah assisted us with dinner plans, finding a local spot that still served food, even making a reservation. Breakfast was spectacularly good. Dinner was excellent too. I especially loved the historical paintings. Plus all the antique furniture was fascinating.

The receptionist wasn't particularly cute.
