We took this little get away as a rest day since I’m recovering from surgery. Unfortunately, we had a family next to us the at least 6 people in the room and they were so loud. The tv was blaring, parents screaming and children crying. We had enough and at midnight we packed up and drove two hours back home. So this put a damper on the trip.

Excellent. Funky vibe. Lovely outdoor areas to order drinks and delicious wood fired pizza. The only negative I have is rooms are slightly small for two people with large bags. I would definitely book again.

The room was clean but it was too close to the office and parking lot so I could hear some noises and it bothers me a bit. However , the staffs were very kind and their services were great. In addition the included breakfast was so delicious and its presentation was excellent!
