Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had really clean and comfortable rooms with excellent tea and coffee making facilities but was a bit too warm even with the window open as the heating was not adjustable. The service was friendly but slow in the evenings due to focus on the beer garden. The location was perfect for walking trails and village amenities but needed some redecorating. The dining experience was decent, with freshly made food offerings. Overall, a great spot for a stay, especially for the value it offers.
The hotel had a mix of positive and negative aspects. The rooms were clean and tidy but suffered from noise due to a nearby party, making it hard to sleep. The staff were helpful and cordial, though service could be slow in the evenings. The location was great for walking trails but had some noise from the street and smoking area. The dining experience was top-notch despite some limitations. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
The hotel rooms were very warm but had all the facilities needed for a single night's stay. It felt like a furnace early in the morning when the heating was turned on.
