Fine for a night

Bar, breakfast, restaurant are lovely. Staff are friendly. Room was very clean. Location was great. Free parking on site. We were staying in the patio rooms which had one window looking into an indoor patio area. For me felt a bit claustrophobic as no window on the outside. Pipes are loud. Was fine for one night but wouldn't want to have stayed longer.
