For a golf break it’s ideal with other facilities to enjoy. We weren’t here for golf, but just staying for a wedding. The room and bathroom looked a little tired but for just sleeping in it’s ok. My wife pulled on her side of the bed cover to get in and the bedside cabinet draw came out completely landing on her foot bruising it. The breakfast was good and staff were nice.

You are captive to the hotel as there is nothing else close by other than driving. This may explain the varied service level. The female staff were friendly and very helpful while the male staff were arrogant and rude. There is no AC and for some reason the room i had was so hot and the worst of all the rooms our group had. While the area is beautiful and the rooms were good - the stairwell areas had cobwebs at the windows and doors so made you wonder the cleanliness of the hotel. Struggle to say i would recommend staying here.

Great room!

Room is great. Would go as far to say as looked better than the photos which is rare. Only downside was that there is no mini fridge which was disappointing. But would for sure stay again if I’m in the area!
