"Our room was spacious and quiet in a wing off of the garden. Tea and coffee were available throughout the day in the dining area. There's a couple of cozy chairs and a desk, and mini fridge. We chose to purchase the breakfast buffet and it included a variety of hot and cold choices. The bathroom was also spacious with cabinet space, good water pressure and temperature. There was plenty of closet space, and windows opened over the garden area. The hotel is located on a sloped street with public transport at either side. Walking distance to the river and a number of sights. A wonderful stay!"
