Perfect Getaway Spot!

dinner service free parking attentive staff engaging staff

I loved the dinner service. It began with drinks in the bar area, then a move to the dining room when food was ready, and a return to the bar after dinner. I found this. There was free parking available which was great! I found staff to be attentive . They engaged well with guests.

I noticed just a slight delay when checking out. The process could have been a bit faster.

a decent stay with minor drawbacks

lovely building quiet ambiance friendly staff helpful staff excellent breakfast good choice dust cleanliness slow service attentive service dated decor

the building had a lovely ambiance and it was very quiet during the night. the staff were friendly and helpful . breakfast was excellent with lots of choice offered.

i found a few cleanliness issues in the room, like dust on high shelves. the service was a bit slow, it could have been more attentive. i noticed the decor felt somewhat dated.
