Avoid at all costs
Pros:

The man in front of house very miserable and grumpy. He didn’t have an ounce of customer service in him. The hotel overall grossly overpriced. Extremely dated very small tv. Breakfast was actually disgusting

Pros:

Expensive for what they offer in regards to the bedrooms and bathrooms, they rely on the stunning location to overcharge & offer substandard accommodation. Great location & could be a great hotel if they upgraded.
