Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is hotel is a beautiful gem, located off the beaten track in a beautiful area. The building itself is uniquely designed, very clean and quiet. Needing accessibility for a hip/leg injury, the hotel has ramps designed into multiple areas making accessibility seamless. The views from my hotel room were all gorgeous. The hotel staff were all very friendly, especially Jocelyn at the reception desk. The breakfast offering included multiple menu options, sit down at a restaurant style area and friendly efficiently removing used dishes from the tables. I only stayed for one-night and wished my stay was longer. This was a wonderful hotel experience, which I don't find too much anymore.
