What people say

We absolutely adored this hotel as everything exceeded expectations. The staff were exceptional in their gracious and pleasant service. Overall we thought it was faultless. Everything but most of all the old atmosphere. Pretty much everything. Great atmosphere, fantastic breakfast terrace view, very comfortable and tasteful room, pool. Staff not always as responsive and proactive as expected.
