romantic getaway!

nice welcome helpful staff limited menu
Dianne and joanne greeted us warmly. It was such a nice welcome. the staff i met were friendly and helpful always. food was also very good and it came to the table hot. the menu had good choices, though a bit limited.
i was allocated a lower ground floor room upon arrival. refurbishment work was being done to bathrooms and i was told all baths are being re-enameled. a strong pungent oil based paint smell permeated the ground floor rooms.
