The rooms are lovely. My balcony had a great view of the harbor and the city. The food is excellent, the coffee shop and pastries out of this world, and location is central yet quiet. The staff are superb, and treat everyone like a family member. Special shout outs to Ivan and Fatima at the front desk, Shaun at reception and Julissa at the pool bar. They are among the most outstanding of this outstanding staff.
