Rooms set up with refrigerator, hot pot, coffee cups, glasses, plates, bowls, cutlery, instant coffee, teas, creamers and a welcome biscuit. My queen room was large and clean. In addition to bed, room was outfitted with large closet, dresser, 2 bedside tables with lamps In room table and chairs large enough to dine at. Traveled with my 2 adult sons and had joining rooms. Rooms had heating and air conditioning units. Nice little table with 2 chairs outside rooms. You'll need a car to get around. Would definitely stay here again. Older property which has been updated and well maintained.
