Comfortable basic hotel

Quite basic but comfortable hotel. My room was quite close to the road which wasn't ideal for a light sleeper. Didn't have the breakfast as I had to rush off. Generally good value.

This hotel was absolutely beautiful and full of charm. The landscaping leading up to the property was stunning and set the tone for a lovely stay. Dinner at the hotel was delicious, and the rooms were very comfortable. We also had a great time across the street at the bar, playing pool and enjoying the friendly local atmosphere. A wonderful experience from start to finish—highly recommend!
