a good stay!

quiet location beautiful garden

i really appreciated the hotel's quiet location away from the main tourist crowds. the beautiful garden was an absolute treat, and i spent some peaceful mornings there. the staff was helpful with directions.

The shower door in my room did not close properly. It kept sliding open. this was a little inconvenient, especially during the colder evenings. it definitely needs some attention.
