Liked: Room comfort
Great service and bistro, uncomfortable room
Excellent service from front desk and excellent food from the bistro. The property is very cool. Unfortunately our room had some issues. One was what seemed to be a faint lingering smoke smell. They had an air freshener, perhaps to mask it, but it was too strong and we put it outside. Second, the bed was hard and very uncomfortable. Lastly, plumbing issues, the shower head was spraying all over ceiling. The AC was shut off for season, but it was still quite warm in October when we stayed, so that added to the discomfort.

Close But No Cigar
Nice spot overall but not quite the country chalet we were hoping for. The hotel itself was nice but right off the main street and a rather unattractive alley/roadway. The town it's in is nothing to speak of. Zero restaurants and nothing to see. You can drive a little to the neighboring town which is very charming. The bistro they offer as an alternative to the fine dining is not worth trying. Wifi was terrible and the pool had a light that was not secured and floating by its wires like a buoy. Didn't look terribly safe. I directed my children not to swim anymore. It was concerning to say the least.
