Local knowledge

Book a room away from shared walls or upper floors to avoid water drainage noise from neighboring bathrooms; rooms 102 and 208 have had reported issues.
The spa's private spa experience is exclusive and highly recommended—ask at reception about booking, as it appears to be a premium add-on worth the investment.
Afternoon 'Tea Time' (14:00-18:00) snack buffet is included and substantial enough to skip or minimize lunch; plan accordingly to avoid overeating.
