7.6/10

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, although a bit tired and in need of renovation for the price, were clean and comfortable, with thoughtful touches like a hot water bottle for cooler evenings. The service was exceptional, especially with the staff going the extra mile to arrange a special birthday surprise. The location, while out of the main town area, offered a serene and colonial-style atmosphere close to nature. Dining options were decent but could have been more varied. Overall, a mixed experience with positives and areas needing improvement.
