This property is amazing! Close to everything and the staff are wonderful and so helpful. We loved eating at Quills one night and sitting in the library drinking our coffee every morning before exploring the city. We really enjoyed the bathtub in our room with the wonderful bath salts. You made our anniversary so special with the chocolate covered strawberries! We can’t wait to stay again!
