Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms were set alongside a beautiful church, resembling a small suite with a salon entrance leading to a corridor to the bathroom and spacious bedroom. While the decor was a bit bland, the room had a fridge, which was super useful and worked great. I would have liked the ability to make a hot drink in the room.
