This place is a gem. The rooms are older but huge and comfortable. All of the staff were accommodating. Eat at the restaurant! We’ve been on the road for days and this was easily one of the best meals we had.

The hotel is very accommodating and the service was rapid and very efficient. Thomas at the reception was very obliging and attentive. We loved the hotel restaurant, the food was exquisite and the service was amazing thanks to Zoe, our waitress. She was extremely courteous and pleasant at all times. We would definitely stay there again.

The property seemed to be in the process of being updated.
Room was clean although had too much fragrance in it, was almost over powering.
