We choose The Mystery Hotel as it had been recommended by a family member who had previously stayed in this hotel. it was welcoming, clean, comfortable and well located. Sadly, due to illness we had to cut short our stay and much to our surprise they voluntary refunded an amount of money back into my account. Thank you, a very generous gesture. Sue
