Tired hotel rooms .

Well located hotel and beautiful lobby area. Great staff . Valet parking which is helpful. Our room was extremely small, the towels were old and needed replacing , the bed comfy but pillows were not. I would say the hotel needs a refurb.

Be prepared to eat on site, but the restaurant menu does not offer a lot of choices. bar is located inside the restaurant so it’s a bit awkward. The grounds could be beautiful but look neglected which is a shame. Water in the indoor pool was freezing!!
