So I was offered a version of the second vegetarian entrée. It worked out fine. The food was good with some nice presentation and flavor. The service was a bit rushed and somewhat disorganized at times. The interior of the restaurant is stone so sound echoes quite a bit. Dogs seem to be allowed in as we observed one with its owner nearby. Some difficulty paying by card. According to the front desk, they have weak internet signal. This took a long time to sort out. Seems like something that could be fixed.

The staff are absolutely lovely. Our room, with its super comfy bed, great shower and space would cost triple in Paris, where we just came from. This type of quality and ambience seems like a real bargain. And the breakfast is among the best I've had at a hotel: just perfect.
