During my stay, I appreciated the pleasant atmosphere in the cozy bar and the delicious sausages at breakfast. I faced challenges with the lack of water pressure in the shower and limited breakfast options. While the location made exploring convenient, it could further enhance accessibility with mobility issues.

Beautiful park nearby, ample private parking, historic and cozy atmosphere
Wi-Fi completely nonexistent during our stay!!! Water pressure in the shower barely a trickle. Room conditions noticeably outdated, including peeling wallpaper and worn carpet. Management should certainly invest in necessary updates!!!

The sausages at breakfast were a proper feast, bursting with flavor and a must-try! Plus, the location was spot-on for easy trips into the city, and I loved catching a glimpse of Magnus, the resident cat. Pure gold!

Comfortable bed, lovely views, and a nice park nearby. The water pressure in the shower was really low. Not a lift to upper floors, so pack light if you can. Great for golfers too, with a course close by.

I enjoyed my stay for three nights in a Classic Double Room Non-Smoking, especially the delicious meals at the restaurant and the cozy bar area with great views. The sun terrace was perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring, and I loved the garden area for a peaceful morning coffee. My only minor issue was that the Wi-Fi was a bit slow at times, but it didn’t dampen my experience! 😊

The baby back ribs I stumbled upon nearby were a culinary delight! Also, the convenient bus stop right outside made exploring a breeze, and the stunning views from the hills kept my spirits high every time I looked outside.
Although the dining prices made my wallet wince, I managed to find some tasty takeaways nearby. As for the staff, I felt they could use a bit more help during the busy hours, but they still managed to keep the vibe pleasant.
