10/10 Exceptional

My second stay here. The staff were as friendly as I remembered and the room was very clean. We arrived late, but still served freshly made food in the evening. Breakfast was nice and made to order. Room overall was clean, comfortable and spacious. Lighting was quite dim, but that's a personal matter as I do writing in the evening a bright lighting is easier on my eyes. I have work in the area for the next couple of years and look forward to staying many more times!
