We had a wonderfully quiet and relaxing stay at this hotel. The setting is beautiful, with lovely views of the surrounding vineyards that made it a perfect place to unwind. It was also very dog-friendly, which we really appreciated while traveling with our pup. The only area that could use improvement is the shower. It was somewhat cumbersome to operate and had low water pressure, which made it less enjoyable than the rest of the experience. Overall, it was a peaceful stay in a gorgeous location, and we would gladly return.
