acceptable stay with some drawbacks

brown lettuce incorrect bill

the staff were friendly and cute, appreciated.

The food was disappointing, specifically the old brown lettuce in the caesar salad. There was also a teabag left in the stewed prunes. i also received someone else's bill when i checked out. it felt a little careless.

friendly staff excellent breakfast dog care night noise ventilation proximity back access

the staff was very friendly. the breakfast was excellent. (i especially enjoyed the variety) we traveled with our dog and he was very well looked after.

it was noisy all night. we had rooms above the restaurant and the ventilation of the kitchen was very close to our rooms. the access to the rooms was at the back of the house, through the ventilation area.
