Excellent Stay, Minor Hiccup

comfortable beds spacious room parking experience restful nights

The beds were super comfortable. I found the rooms very nice and spacious, which allowed me to settle in quickly. The parking experience was also great. It made arrival and departure simple. Breakfast at Epona was succulent..

I did notice that the room needed two chairs, not just one, it was a slight inconvenience.
