Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The room was very quiet and had a nice little balcony where I could sit out in the mornings and enjoy the plentiful bird life and songs. It was nicely decorated with a lovely outside patio. However, being close to the restaurant kitchen made it a bit noisy at night if you're trying to go to bed early.
