My wife and i returned for a four-night stay. a new year's eve dinner and dance event included a three-course meal and a live band. it all went smoothly, and everyone looked happy. we stayed in a refurbished suite. It offered ample space and a high standard of decor.
Hot water took a while to heat up. It required running all taps for ten minutes.

delayed porridge long wait
The gym had modern equipment. The surroundings are quite peaceful. It was a good stay.
I was very annoyed. Breakfast service wasn't great. On our first morning, we ordered porridge. It took about 25 minutes. The waitress never came back to update us. Later, I discovered the shower was not hot unless you ran the taps for ten minutes. That's ridiculous for a four-star hotel.
