Cathedral view is obscured!
Stayed 4 nights March '06, prebooked, paying premium for 'cathedral view' room. Hotel facilities and service are fine, and the view over the plaza in front of the cathedral is lively and interesting. However, the cathedral itself is virtually covered in scaffolding, with only the spire being visible! There is a hefty cost premium payable for the so-called 'cathedral view', so I think it is less than honest of the hotel to make no mention (say, on their website) whatever of the fact that the view is totally obscured by scaffolding. When I mentioned this to them, they simply shrugged it off - 'not our problem'.
I would think the scaffolding will be in place for months, if not years.
