I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is embedded in a beautifully maintained garden. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout my visit. While the rooms were nice, I found the towels to feel a bit damp, which was slightly disappointing. The location was fantastic for exploring the nearby areas, making it quite convenient for a getaway, but the value for money could be better due to the condition of the towels.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, nestled in a beautifully maintained garden that's just stunning. The rooms were spacious and clean, which made my stay comfortable. However, I did notice that the fresh towels felt slightly damp, which was a bit off-putting. The location is a real gem as it's surrounded by nature, giving a peaceful vibe, but it can get quite chilly on the North side of the island. Overall, it’s good value for money, but there are a few areas that could use improvement.

My stay at the hotel was quite lovely overall. It’s nestled in a beautiful, lush garden, which made for a serene atmosphere. The rooms were decent but could have been improved as the towels felt a bit damp. The staff was friendly and helpful, adding to the pleasant experience. However, I did find the dining options to be lacking, particularly at breakfast. While the location was great for enjoying nature, it felt a bit secluded from other attractions.

My stay at the hotel was peaceful and serene, surrounded by beautiful gardens and a stunning view of the mountains. The location is perfect for those wanting to explore the northern part of the island, but the damp towels and lack of ideal room conditions were a downside.
