Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the beautiful location and great breakfast options, but many expressed disappointment with the cleanliness and upkeep of the rooms and facilities. The service was noted as friendly, though some guests felt it could be improved. Overall, while the hotel has potential, it seems to be falling short of the luxury expectations for a 5-star establishment.
