Everything in the hotel was fine. However, because I had to change the booking, I was unaware I had to leave the hotel one day before my plans. It would be useful, especially for older travelers like us, to remind the dates for the stay during check-in such that any discrepancy would be easily solved.

9/10 Wonderful! (598 reviews)
The amenities included were excellent and in super working order. The only thing I would say is that I was a bit surprised that there weren't more amenities. For example, there's no kettle in the room, kitchenette, or fridge. Despite this, the grounds are excellent, the rooms are comfortable, and the stay was superb.

It is a very nice place to rest and relax. Although this hotel may not be the most family-oriented option for guests with small children, we had a very pleasant stay. We visited for the weekend with our two year old daughter, and the staff was very kind, helpful, and attentive to all our requests. We truly appreciated their hospitality. Only a very small downside was that the bed was not the very comfortable I would expect in this hotel. Apart from that, we will certainly come back again :)
