The room featured lovely amenities. Breakfast included a great range of options. The staff were attentive and friendly (always ready to assist).
I noticed no vegan options on the menu. The dinner was poor. I found the rooms in need of a bit of TLC, particularly in the bathroom (it appears to be an old building).
