A pleasant short stay.

The staff were very welcoming. The room as expected is "motel style" with parking at the door. The room itself was clean and reasonable in size. The king bed was very comfortable. We had lunch in the restaurant and it was truly excellent. We were also granted a complementary wine tasting voucher for two. We will stay there again.

This may need to be upgraded to five star but will have to wait until the next time we stay there as this trip was essentially just a sleepover as we did nothing but sleep overnight. We did however manage to lock ourselves out of our room within 5 minutes. The staff were wonderful during check-in and just as wonderful getting our door reopened. While the room was basic everything was clean and comfortable. Looking forward to our next stay.
