    mediocre breakfast

    comfortable stay but breakfast needs attention

    The bed provided an excellent night's sleep with high-quality linens. The room's decor offered a charming ambiance that enhanced our overall comfort.

    The breakfast experience lacked warmth and engagement from the staff.
