We did find the portions for dinner and breakfast a bit small and a bit stingy where it shouldn't have cost much to be generous - too few toasts with the pate or the cheese course (5 crackers). A bit more generosity and it would have been a perfect stay ##### Lori Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew 22 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasantly surprising visit Great place and superb staff.
