Dinah's Garden Hotel

Dinah's Garden Hotel

8/10 Good
"The property has changed since the previous owner, Julie, passed away. It’s still great, however, each time we have visited since, the property has changed in less enjoyable ways. The staff is still top notch. The restaurant’s food is less fresh and delicious. The grounds are less impressive and maintained."
