Nice place. Freindly staff. Room was small but functional. Rooftoop view was great. Breakfast was disappointing. They were out of sausage around 8:15 and the potatoes were terrible. So we ended up eating light and getting early lunch. Breakfast was my only negative experience.

The hill you had to climb to get to this property was very steep. If you have bad knees, find another place, get a golf cart or take a taxi. The room and bathroom- very small
