Happy face iconLiked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I loved my room. Plenty of space and nice bathroom. Comfy bed and plunger coffee. But mostly I liked the staff. They were consistent in their service and kindness. Also really enjoyed the breakfast and dinner in the lovely restaurant with great food and exceptional staff. I will definitely go back in summer so I can swim in the beautiful pool.
