Absolutely beautiful room with a lovely bathroom. Centrally located and easily accessible. They have a beautiful courtyard which appeared to be used during the summer but was not utilized in mid week in September so it would have been nice to go out and enjoy a beverage out there after a day of hiking but it appeared to not be permitted so it was in your room which as it was on street level (curtains closed) was not particularly appealing. The courtyard was unoccupied for our entire stay and was just used as a through way to the Main Street.
