“This property promises a majestic escape, though the journey there requires navigating a significant, bumpy road. Once there, expect impeccable service from a team that clearly prioritizes guest experience. I noted reports of potential noise issues in certain rooms due to external equipment, so confirming room specifics may be wise.”
