Solid choice
on-site parkinghelpful stafffirm bed
The parking on site was useful. Staff was helpful and kind offering restaurant tips. My room had air conditioning and the bed was firm. I enjoyed my two nights there.
The soundproofing in the rooms was not good. I could hear guests coming and going at all hours.

I loved the central location, a short walk from attractions. The interiors are well furnished and the bed was huge! The breakfast was good. I really appreciated the signature cocktails at the bar. I found the fountain in the yard very cozy.
The soundproofing between the rooms could use some improvement. I could hear noises from other rooms.
Dining

Breakfast included many options and tasted delicious. I especially enjoyed the coffee and pastries that were served each morning in the breakfast room. The signature cocktails were gorgeous and very tasty.
Rooms

The room included daily cleaning, water, and towel service. The bed was very comfortable and the room was quite spacious. The room design kept to the convent theme, but felt fresh and modern.
