"Amazing stay with the wonderful man in the recption who made our passning through fun. We where talking to him how we craved San Grias and When the local pub down the road didnt have San Grias, he showed up, yelled in a friendly manner and went behind the bar and whipped us up a batch. The hotel itself is beautiful and really well kept, even though it doesn’t look like much on the outside it’s truly a gem on the inside. "
