This hotel has a lovely setting with beautiful views of the countryside, making it perfect for a relaxing getaway. The rooms are spot clean but a bit cramped for my taste, and the overall service was efficient, though the staff could have been more cheerful. The historical charm of the hotel is a nice touch, but I felt that a warmer atmosphere would have enhanced the experience. Overall, it's a solid choice, especially if you're looking for a scenic location near the mountains.
