A relaxing getaway

fine groundsbeautiful terracecomfortable bedsteep step
The grounds are fine, I appreciated the well kept courts. The terrace was beautiful, and the food was superb. Service at the front desk were great. I found the beds to be the most comfortable I've ever experienced.
The entrance to the hotel requires the ability to carry luggage up several steep steps. It posed a challenge upon arrival.

The hamburger served in the dungeon bar tasted one of the nicest I have had for a long time. The chef prepared a sirloin steak every night that was cooked to perfection. I saw the new menu offered a good selection.
