6/10 Good

Comfortable 3 star at best
We booked this because it was marketed as a 5 star guest house. At best, I would rate this 3 stars. The room was large and clean, if somewhat under furnished with odd decor. The bed was very comfortable. Our pre-ordered meal was tasty. Serving staff seemed overwhelmed and could use some training. This was adequate for a 1 night stay but it would not be my lodge of choice in the area.
