Exceptionally good. Very friendly staff.

This is, surprisingly, a very good place to stay. Like a Riad in Marrakesh. Outside facade is normal but inside is exceptional and very clean. Very friendly staff and our requests for vegetarian meals was met without any issues. The room decor and the bathroom are modern. Will definitely stay here when next in the area.

Gorgeous food

Room is ok for a one night stay, bed really low to the ground and TV is really small. Bathroom has a tiny sink and a spilt mirror so i could only see half my face unless i bent down or stood on my toes. Staff were friendly and breakfast was gorgeous.
