With an 8.7/10 guest rating from 911 reviews, the overall picture is of travelers who value space, quiet time, and straightforward facilities rather than constant bustle.

Free wired internet is also frequently appreciated for planning trips or keeping in touch. Rooms are kept non-smoking, and the property includes a lift for easier movement between levels.
What stands out in recent guest comments is how workable the setup feels for groups: families can travel together without feeling like they’re squeezed into a single plan. Check-in runs from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and check-out is at 11:00 AM, which helps you structure a day of sightseeing or tee times.
