I found the hotel immaculate in every way. It felt exquisitely decorated. the staff were fantastic. the location suited me well for visiting points of interest in the area (i visited a few local landmarks).
i found the breakfast expensive at £13.50 per head. i thought there could have been a wider variety of additional items offered. it seemed a bit steep considering other options nearby.

I found the staff friendly. Their warm smiles. the breakfast was really excellent, with quality ingredients and generous portions (i especially loved the freshly baked pastries!). i managed to check in a little earlier, quite helpful as i wanted to freshen up before exploring the area.
our room lacked a shower, and there was only a bath available. i'd have really appreciated a quick shower option after a day of hiking.

The room had air conditioning , which I appreciated during the July heat. A restaurant sat just across the street. Good parking was available at the rear of the building.
The television controls were in a different language , making it difficult to use.
