Nice stay

cute building room upgrade lighting options

i found the building very cute, with a cobbled path leading to the reception. i especially appreciated the complimentary room upgrade and champagne offered upon check-in because i was celebrating a birthday. the room had many lighting options controllable from the bedside (a small but appreciated detail). i also enjoyed the variety of snacks and drinks included in the mini fridge.

the church bells started tolling early at 7 am. it was a bit disruptive after a long trip. also, the light control panel on one side of the bed was not working properly, i reported it and it didn't get fixed .
