Acceptable, but Overpriced Stay
good breakfasthigh priceexpensive transportation
The breakfasts were very good. They were made fresh daily.
The price felt too high for what was offered. The room felt smaller than expected based on online photos. Airport transportation arranged by the hotel was much more expensive. An Uber would have been significantly cheaper.

The staff offered helpful assistance with restaurant reservations. I also enjoyed the private tours to the Winelands. A local guide led the tour, providing excellent insights. The Beautiful Double or Twin Room I stayed in was spacious. The patio and garden were lovely places for breakfast. I appreciated the availability of tickets for local attractions.
The airport shuttle was expensive. An Uber taxi would have cost less.
