10/10 Excellent
"They have renovated since I have been here last and it looks great. The Restaurant staff is perfection. The coffee staff is so so kind. Especially this one older gentleman, he made small talk with all the guests and was so informative about blackberry pastries. And the lady who manages the gift shop. She checked in consistently and was so sweet. We enjoyed our time here and the views are incredible 😲"
