Staff were very welcoming and friendly. We were attending a wine tasting experience at Llanerch Vineyard and the hotel, very kindly, shuttled us to and from the vineyard, which was fantastic! The room was nice. The bathroom in particular was very spacious. My husband and I had a lovely overnight stay, would highly recommend.
