An Excellent Stay!

The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable! They shared the history of the hotel, which I really appreciated. I was thrilled to see the balloons and banners the staff arranged, celebrating my husband's birthday. This was a good, thoughtful touch. The food in the restaurant tasted amazing!!!

The soundproofing wasn't great. Thin walls caused noise issues.

The grounds seemed beautiful. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My room also had nice decor.

The room felt cold. I turned up the radiator, but it did not warm up the space at all. The bed was not particularly comfortable. The toilet and bath both looked stained.
