Very good Stay at the Hotel

spacious room walk-in shower buffet breakfast
Our room was spacious and it was also very clean with a walk in shower room. Breakfast had a buffet style, and hot food was available. We enjoyed our meals in the restaurant both nights as the meals were beautifully presented.
The plumbing was a little noisy at times, however it was very minor.
