some issues impacted the stay

clean double roomslow servicedry chips

the double room was generally clean and tidy, as expected.

The restaurant service was notably slow. it took an unacceptable amount of time for our drinks order to be taken, and even longer for the drinks to actually arrive at the table. also, there were only a few overcooked and dry chips under the fish. It was very disappointing

Okay Stay, Some Issues Observed

helpful staffcontinental selectionlaid back check-inwalking path

The staff was helpful and friendly. They really seemed to care. Breakfast offered a great continental selection, also perfect poached eggs.

Check-in was not ideal. The experience felt laid back. The immediate area lacks walking paths so it is not great if you bring a dog.
