We had a great time in this very nice property near the center. The rooms were very nice-sized and comfy, beds and mattresses fantastic, bathrooms beautiful and nicely furnished and equipped. Only problem the heat in our room wasn't working but the staff gave us an electrical heater and extra blankets ...
