Reviews and Ratings
We had a lovely time at this hotel, especially enjoying the amenities for families and the impressive breakfast spread. The staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The only downside was that the restaurant service could use some improvement, as we experienced a long wait one evening. Overall, this is a comfortable and family-friendly spot that we would happily return to.
