The on-site restaurant is a highlight, celebrated for its excellent food, wine selection, and desserts, making it a recommended dining option. The rooms are modern, though some guests have mentioned the limited storage space with just a cubby hole and one drawer. Breakfast at the bar across the way is generally considered lovely, adding to the overall positive experience.

Acceptable, but needs some WORK

helpful staffstale odourlimited plug sockets
The staff were helpful with directions and information. They explained everything clearly.
The carpet had a stale odour. This was UNACCEPTABLE. Walls were too thin and I could hear my neighbours snoring loudly. I found limited plug sockets in the room. This was inconvenient.
