Negative Reviews

No staff on site when bistro closes
Reviewers advise future guests to check their arrival time lines up with the bistro's hours of operation, as there are reportedly no staff on site when the restaurant closes, which created a small problem for some previous guests. Some reviewers also experienced the restaurant being closed unexpectedly, and suggest future guests check the hours of the bistro during their stay to avoid disappointment.
negative:
Some bathrooms not in rooms
Though each room is complete with its own private bathroom, there are some for which the bathroom is outside the bedroom. Most guests did not find this a major issue, but it was a slight annoyance.

Low ceilings in rooms
A number of previous guests say they found the ceilings a little low, which means this may not be the ideal option for taller people.
