“The recent refurbishment of the rooms is a noticeable improvement, and the restaurant's cuisine is genuinely excellent. Its motel-like layout, with parking just outside some rooms, means stepping outside to reach your accommodation, a detail worth knowing. Still, the rooms themselves are clean, the breakfast solid, and the staff quite welcoming, making it a commendable stay.”
