The building itself and the furnishings were not excellent, in fact, it was hardly avarage (possibly 3* at a push). HOWEVER, what it lacked in 5* star grandeur, the owner and staff made up for 10 fold! The 'continental' breakfast turned out to be a fulle English plus continental breakfast daily (I stayed 5 days). Every need one expressed, they bent over backward to fulfill. The owner picked me up from the Airport herself, I was allowed to check mails and print papers free of charge because my laptop broke down, they did my laundry before I left, if I wanted anything special to eat, needed directions, even so far as sending somebody with me so that I don't get lost...nothing was too much trouble. It was like staying with family. In fact, I was greeted with hugs and kisses and invited to rturn soon upon my departure. The surrounding area is very upmarket, safe and close to all major attractions and shopping. Well worth the stay, I miss them already!
