Had a wonderful Valentines day weekend staying here. Our room was stylish with touches of art deco charm and the bed and pillows comfortable. The suprise Jar of lollies on our table was a cute & unexpected touch. We enjoyed a beautiful romantic valentines 3 course dinner that was presented beautifuly and tasted just as good. The service that we received on the evening was Exceptional. The hostess / waitress catered to our every need, always friendly and smiling. She was a delight to have serve us with such a professional yet, authentic manner. We had a wonderful weekend here and will be back to dine again soon. Our only gripe would be that there was no onsite parking for guests.
