Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very nice in an awesome garden setting with a spacious balcony offering mountain views, but they lacked comfort and good views. The service was attentive but could use some improvement in finesse and treatment offerings. The location was conveniently close to the main town road, ideal for relaxation amidst vineyards and orchards, despite water restrictions. The dining options were basic and chaotic at times. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for enhancement.
The hotel offers delightful views of the vineyards from the garden, with a mix of a king-size bed downstairs and twin beds on the mezzanine. The rooms are basic and not very comfortable, lacking a good view, but the serene surroundings make up for it.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with beautiful rooms and friendly staff. The location was peaceful and offered lovely views, though the dining experience was underwhelming at times. Overall, a comfortable and relaxing stay.
