Staff were very friendly and accommodating. We visited during lockdown which was a challenging time for hotels. We had room service for dinner and it was superb.

We stayed for two nights. The room was spacious and very clean. The staff were polite and courteous. We encountered one incident, when contacting reception via phone in our room it was not answered for long intervals. This happened on both days. Other than that we were very satisfied with our stay in the Hotel.
