A lovely place to stay. A small improvement to food served would make a massive difference.
Pros:

Spacious room, friendly and helpful staff. Excellent facilities. Very comfortable.

Cons:

Breakfast and food in general: Breakfast starts from 7am but was not fully available at that time, which is unusual as hotel breakfasts are usually ready slightly before the advertised start. There was a very limited selection for self-service, mostly sweet items. Everything else, including cheese, eggs, and any hot drinks, has to be ordered, which ensures freshness but isn’t ideal if you’re in a rush. We tried the restaurant once for dinner and decided not to return, as it was unimpressive.
