"The hotel is nice and the staff are friendly and helpful. The food was lovely and we also used the spa.The hotel is near to two museums which is good, but about 20/30 min walk to the center. One of the main negatives for me was that the hotel is fronted by a busy road, and so of the rooms have patio doors which aren't actually fully flush in their frames so the noise is louder than we would have preferred. Couldn't comment if the rooms without balconies are quieter. Our AC also wasn't working so...
