We really enjoyed the hotel. It was very comfortable, clean, and the service was good. The breakfast was excellent. However, at dinner, we ordered two fish dishes; in both cases, the fish was dry and overcooked (over-roasted/baked). The rest of the dishes were quite mediocre. There is an option for lunch on the ground floor at an inexpensive snack bar.

Bar: 0/5 Don’t bother going to the bar, especially if you’re from out of state. Apparently, the bar manager “won’t trust” your out-of-state ID and will proceed to Google questions to quiz you on geography, including questions about your ID and where you’ve lived. All I wanted was a drink after a long day in the operating room. The irony is that I’m in one of the most respected fields of work (surgical residency), yet I was refused service (even after answering questions correctly) because the bar manager wasn’t familiar with my out-of-state ID. She also refused to serve my husband, who is 33 years old. Absolutely ridiculous and an embarrassing way to treat customers. Restaurant Upstairs: 5/5 On the other hand, the food and service upstairs were excellent! Everyone was very welcoming. My husband and I both ordered the duck, and it was incredible. The drinks were also very good. It was a completely different experience upstairs, and definitely worth the visit!
