Property was very nice, not the Hilton, but clean and comfortable. I liked the style of the room. The on site bistro was very nice, great food. Only issue was the bed was very firm.

The staff were super friendly and helpful. However the room itself was very dated and not nearly clean enough. The shower and fridge both leaked when being used and I’m sure only require a simple fix. Some more vegetarian food options would also be good for the bistro. Otherwise a great location.
