10/10 Excellent
"Gorgeous lobby. Lovely setting. Good breakfast. Pleasant hosts. Until we got to the room. The room was tiny. Like, a little bigger than a walk-in closet kind of tiny. We needed to walk sideways to cross the room. The room was also very spartan with few frills to speak of. We were there for one night so it was all we needed."

"The staff were brilliant and very helpful with everything we asked for. However, whilst in the bar there was a long wait to be served and guests were having to locate the bar assistant from other parts of the hotel. It may be advantageous to instruct a staff member to be present permamntly, especially when busy. On the Saturday it was busy and the restaurant ran out of eight basic foods items' resulting in two options available. This was at 7.30pm. Please note we did very much enjoy our stay, but these things would refrain us from recommending you to our friends. Thank you for a relaxing stay."
