Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's rooms are quite spacious and clean, but there was an issue with the seals on the windows in the first two rooms. The service is very helpful and friendly, making accommodations for a group of 15. The location is small yet quiet and peaceful, though improvements are needed for international travelers. The dining options are limited but compensated by the friendly staff. Overall, a cozy stay with some room for improvement.
I recently stayed at the hotel, and overall it was a pleasant experience. The service was mostly great, with accommodating staff and quick responses to requests. The location was convenient, although some improvements could be made to welcome international travelers. Dining had a good spread, but there were some misses in preparation. Overall, it was a fine stay with a few minor drawbacks.
