lovely stay with great staff
easy access friendly staff excellent service
The location was perfect for what i needed, easy access to local shops and hiking trails. the staff was so friendly and helpful. i had dinner one night, the food was excellent, and i especially loved the service, very quick.
the room's bathroom shower needed some attention. i found some dust and cobwebs in there when i checked in. a deeper clean would have been great.
