Excellent visit ! Thank you for being such great hosts. The coffee/tea station in the common area was simply wonderful and location was perfect. The only challenge was the pull out sofa bed with an uncomfortable mattress as well as a pointy metal bar sticking out at the bottom of the bed which could have caused injury (we had to cover it up by wrapping towels over it) but overall excellent hotel that has everything we needed. Merci !
