Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Likes - good variety of breakfast choices, dinner menu also good and food overall excellent. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Bed didn't seem a king as requested, but our room was changed quickly and efficiently. Relaxed atmosphere. Other - bedroom decor and furniture a bit tired looking. A major crack in our bedroom window was taped over. Shower had very low pressure. (All of which led to the good review rather than the excellent).

Good experience except for the hot water.

The staff was really friendly. The only problem is the hot water, which wasn't that hot and the water pressure which was kind of low.
