Nice and Relaxed and friendly staff
Really nice and relaxed place, staff were friendly and services good. We had lunch one day there and it was very tasty but a bit small. Rooms were very nice and had a lot of nice thoughtful touches

6/10 Good

The room was beautiful and the breakfast delicious. I was not aware that there was a function at the hotel and the restaurant was completely closed to me for evening dinner. I was forced to sit alone at the bar balancing a pizza on my lap. Not an ideal or nice experience for what would otherwise we a lovely hotel for an overnight stay.
