6.8/10

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The beautiful garden setting was a plus, but the lack of daily vacuuming in the rooms and the small, old-fashioned room with its creaky bed and limited space were drawbacks. Overall, it offered a cozy atmosphere with historical charm, but there were some areas that needed improvement.

7.0/10

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious with some nice views out the windows, but unfortunately, they were in need of a refresh, especially room 302. The small size of the room was manageable, but a small shelf for essentials like keys and sunglasses would have been helpful.
