I had a lovely stay at this hotel, situated in a peaceful rural area that’s perfect for getting away from it all. The rooms are clean and cozy, and the service from the staff was truly outstanding—they really made my stay special. The only downside was the dining options could be slightly improved for breakfast. Overall, I found this place to be great value for money if you’re looking for relaxation in a charming village.

El hotel tiene una ubicación fantástica, cerca de la naturaleza y ofrece un ambiente acogedor. Las habitaciones son limpias y con buen mantenimiento, además el personal es muy amable y atento. Sin embargo, durante nuestra estancia hubo un evento privado que causó algunas demoras en el servicio.
