Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but some maintenance issues were evident. The service was friendly and accessible, yet there were some disruptions during the night. The location was convenient and beautiful, with easy access to nearby attractions. The dining experience had its limitations, but the homemade cakes were delicious. Overall, it was a decent stay with room for improvement.
The hotel offered exactly what we were looking for on our weekend getaway - clean and comfortable rooms, although not centrally located near shopping or restaurants. We did have a minor issue with a masked person briefly visiting without entering the room for a check.
The hotel had clean and comfy rooms, but the service lacked in customer satisfaction. The location was good for my needs, but the dining was overpriced for the quality offered.
