Rooms are very spacious. Bathrooms have a hot tub with jets and surprisingly there’s a heated floor in the bathroom. there is also private patio. Rooms have a mini kitchen with a microwave and plates/cups. Grounds are very modest but clean. Definitely has more a mid range hotel look vs a resort look.

Good hotel that has only one draw back - you need a car to get anywhere as it was too far to walk to the city centre. Clean and quiet with friendly staff and a good laundry facility.
