    A lovely hotel with a beautiful interior design. During a rainy day, we used the time to work on our laptops in the shared area, which was quiet and comfortable, while enjoying some good food from the hotel restaurant. The wifi also worked very well. We booked our stay with breakfast which we can recommend. It has everything you can ask for. However, you should arrive early since it gets packed with people around 9 am.
