I found the staff super attentive and helpful . the location was ideal for a peaceful retreat from the crowds. the breakfast buffet each morning offered an unbelievably solid selection. A perfect start to each day.

my only slight issue was that the laminated floor in my room had lifted a little, a small detail though.

waterfront parkmodern stylewheelchair accesschaotic breakfast

The hotel is in a former religious convent. It seemed peaceful. A large waterfront park is steps away. I saw people relaxing and walking their dogs. The hotel felt clean and modern (i liked the style).

The hotel is not accessible for wheelchairs. The entrance has three steps above street level. The breakfast area got chaotic. Staff seemed overwhelmed with keeping the buffet stocked, and tables were not cleared quickly (i could see it).
