This place was very frustrating - a combo of great things and really mediocre things which should not be taking place at a hotel this pricey, and which styles itself as a luxurious boutique hotel. On the plus side - nice staff, great beds, quiet building and environment, beautiful and distinct building, with lots of character. The not-so-good things - the breakfast, while plentiful, was clearly re-using food from previous days, like bread rolls, chia puddings, bananas (they kept getting darker and darker) etc. No real orange juice for breakfast, only the undrinkable pre-packaged stuff, yet they had the facilities to make you a fresh one - but only if you paid extra. The towels in the bathroom were clean, but had been washed so many times that they've become as harsh as sandpaper, rough and threadbare - really out of place in this hotel; and finally - and I appreciate this is subjective - the decor is atrocious, a lot of garish, fake-luxury furniture, awful paintings, the kitschiest of kitsch - with no information at all about the building, its history, all of which is a touristic goldmine - but the interest just isn't there i guess.
