acceptable stay but with some issues.

helpful staffmarked wallssoft pillows
the staff were helpful and understanding of our needs during a difficult time.
The room in the annexed part felt a little tired. I noticed marked walls and dusty chairs. the bathroom seemed outdated, like it was straight out of the 70s or 80s, and could use an update. the beds and pillows also felt too soft for my liking.

Solid stay, few small things

friendly staffgood choicebeautiful building
I appreciated the friendly staff. Breakfast had good choice. I found water dispensers and biscuits, a nice touch. The building itself is beautiful.
The restaurant wasn't open when I booked. This meant I had to get food delivered, a bit inconvenient.

Fine Grounds and Friendly Staff, a True Gem!

The staff was cute and helpful. The grounds feature fine gardens! They offer a serene backdrop for relaxation. The breakfast had many options. I found something delicious for everyone.
I noticed the jacuzzi bath was hard to turn off due to the button's placement. It was a minor inconvenience during an otherwise great stay.
