My stay at the hotel was truly remarkable, thanks mainly to the fantastic staff who went out of their way to make me feel special. The building's historical charm was a delightful surprise, and the restaurant served some of the best food I've had in a while. However, I did find the room sizes a bit small for my liking, and the music on Saturday night was louder than I expected, which affected my relaxation. Overall, the experience was memorable and enjoyable.
