Comfortable Stay

This is an historic hotel full of charm.As a solo traveler, I was given a very small room but the bed was so comfortable. I was put on the sixth floor with no elevator access but I managed. The hotel restaurant was very good. There were a couple of hiccups in the staff service but I coped.
