Summary: A very pleasant despite the high temperatures. The property is obviously historic yet well-kept and cared for, with attention to the overall appearance and condition. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and beautifully decorated. The beds were incredibly comfortable. The staff were incredibly attentive and made us feel very welcome. Being close to attractions, shops, restaurants and transportation the building managed to provide a peaceful and quiet atmosphere when you closed the front door - We had a truly enjoyable stay and would highly recommend this place to others!
