The reasons I’m conflicted

Everything about this place radiates comfort and warmth, from the spacious accommodations to the delicious breakfasts crafted to perfection.

While common areas are welcoming, I found the plunge pool, though appealing, was too cold for a dip during my stay.

unpleasant experience

Comfortable stay with great amenities available.

The motion sensor in the bathroom was frustrating. It turned on the main lights unexpectedly, disrupting our sleep. This extreme safety feature is beyond unnecessary and made nighttime visits intolerable.

shared common areas

The Twin/Double Room was massive and super clean. It had a luxurious bathroom with a huge bath and a walk-in shower. All the amenities were there—fridge, kettle, coffee maker. Plus, there was plenty of storage and a fantastic big mirror for getting ready. The shared living room and outdoor patios were beautiful, but we didn't use the pool because it was too cold. Really comfy stay overall!
