I found the rooms quite cozy with the provided tea and coffee, but wish there were more privacy options like shutters. The location was peaceful and perfect for a relaxing stay, though some noise might have affected my sleep. The dining experience was satisfactory with some extra touches, but the wait for food was a bit long.

7.6/10

My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms were nicely decorated with big fluffy towels and fresh linen, but they felt very basic and tired, not living up to the luxurious standard I expected for the price. The friendly staff did their best to make our stay pleasant, but the room didn't match the advertised lavishness on the website.
