8/10 Very good

This was a great place to stay. The room was very clean and the female receptionist was incredibly helpful and welcoming. A credit to the place. Only thing that stopped it from being 5 stars was lack of info at breakfast. We ordered and only became aware that there was bread, juice and other items available when we saw the waitress carry them away at the end of breakfast. It wasn’t visible from where we sat so a heads up would’ve been helpful. Still would recommend.

Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the decor good and interesting pictures. The food in the restaurant was excellent. The only negative from my husband was that there wasn't a shaver socket in the bathroom.
