"It's an amazing hotel with lots of character that comes tooth creaking stairs, long winding walk to bed, old furniture, and a wait for the hot water to reach your room....!!!"

"This hotel is the opposite of a chain hotel, because in architecture and decor it is old-fashioned (18th, 19th, and 20th centuries) and charmingly eccentric: it is one of a kind."
