Reviews and Ratings
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.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The room was spacious and comfortable, the service was top-notch, and the location was serene. The dining experience was outstanding, making my stay truly memorable. However, the facilities were a bit basic.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, offering nice touches like a hot water bottle when it got cooler in the evening. However, I felt the price I paid did not fully match the overall value received.
