the location was lovely. the room, a classic double, had a beautiful style. it felt very romantic, a place for us to reconnect.
the restaurant seemed a little deserted. it felt a bit sad, a stark contrast to the vibrant atmosphere we expected. also, the car park felt substandard for such a charming place. the price felt a bit high.
