Fantastic stay!

christmas decorationsefficient check-inspacious suitemissing drawers
We arrived and found the Christmas decorations were just going up, a lovely touch. A friendly young lady checked us in very efficiently. Breakfast service on Friday was amazing. The blonde lady serving us offered superb, warm service. Our suite, room 54, was very spacious and super clean.
I found that the room lacked drawers for clothes storage, a minor inconvenience. There also weren't many toiletries. No complimentary water was available.

The room I stayed in needs updated furniture and soft furnishings. The windows had not been cleaned recently and the exterior paint was peeling.

Wonderful Stay at a Charming Hotel

manicured gardenfriendly staffvaried breakfastlimited menu
The manicured garden looked beautiful (i enjoyed the scenery). All staff members were polite and friendly. My room was spacious and comfortable. I appreciated the varied breakfast choices, including cereals, juices, fruit, and pastries.
The restaurant menu seemed limited. There were virtually no vegetable side options available. The food quality was average at best. I hope they can improve the menu in the future.
Location

The hotel is situated in a secluded, quiet area away from the main thoroughfare. This provides a tranquil atmosphere. The grounds have ample parking spaces. It ensures easy access arriving by car.
