The bedroom felt a bit small. the shower space was also quite tight and not very comfortable. It was difficult to move around in there. we loved the stay though. It was a pity these were issues.

The staff was helpful. They provided a map with a minor detour when the main road was closed. Everything was spotlessly clean. I managed to get food after arriving late in the evening. It was very nice and reasonably priced. The hotel location was very convenient.
The bar area felt a little noisy since it is also a public bar.
