Erica

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is very comfortable, the location terrific and the staff extremely helpful. I was surprised by the somewhat unimaginative breakfast selection - no sugar-free muesli, nuts, seeds, etc, and only sweet spreads for toast. The portions were generous but I missed my daily shot of sugar-free fibre.
