Big disappointment right next to the cemetery.
Pros:

We had 2 beds & a bathtub. The hotel grounds were pretty.

Cons:

Back door overlooked major road & cemetery. These rooms really made us feel like unwanted step-children for the much nicer hotel. Breakfast was a big disappointment. Nothing was hot. Even the coffee was only lukewarm. It tasted good but was not hot in any way.

Recommend - esp the breakfast 😆😆
Pros:

We just stayed one night - so the room was ok for a short stay. Nice bathroom.

We paid to have breakfast onsite - wow wee - it was super impressive - fresh and loads of options from cooked to fresh. That was worth every cent!!!! Well done to who cooks & who manages this! Everything was delicious +++.

Cons:

The room was a little lacking in natural light - felt a bit dark on arrival in the afternoon - feels like a bit yesterday with the decor. The bed is a queen - not sure king size was available.
