How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it. Read the reviews yourself on Google Maps.

I love that you can have anything from delicious coffee to great cocktails! The service is great and you can choose to seat inside or outside by the fire. They also have small bites and pastries.

The service is kind, and professional. The drinks are tasty and the ambiance so beautiful. It is a little bit hidden all the way on the back as soon you see the board sign you are on the right path:)
