It was isolated and I did not see staff until Thursday morning while I was leaving. And that was only because they had the wrong credit card on file. It has a very old world feel to it. Might be ok for romantic getaway but not for solo travelers. Very few amenities. I did feel over charged.

Room was clean. Floor tile was a bit worn in the sitting room. Didn’t use hot tub. French sourdough toast was good.
