Restaurant no longer available but still advertised. Breakfast starts at 8am which is ridiculous. Probably will not stay again

We had a fantastic stay here. The hotel was spotless, beautifully maintained, and the atmosphere was really welcoming from the moment we arrived. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always going out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. The room was comfortable, spacious, and very clean, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The bed was especially comfortable and we slept really well. The location was also ideal, making it easy to get around and explore the area. Overall, it was a great experience and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Overall, our stay was good and we enjoyed it. The place itself was nice and everything was comfortable. However, the breakfast could have been better. There was food available and it was alright, but for the price we paid, we were hoping for more variety and better options. The selection felt quite limited and there wasn’t much to choose from. With a bit more effort put into breakfast, this would have been a much better experience.
