inconsistent experience at this hotel

inefficient staffoversalted food

the staff seemed young and eager to please. however, their efficiency was lacking. i waited a frustrating 15 minutes for drinks from the bar. my raw beef starter suffered when a waiter added excessive mustard and sauces at the table. it was ultimately inedible. the excessive salt in the food was a recurring issue and my request to omit it was ignored. the breakfast avocado was watery and ruined the toast.

I enjoyed a wonderful stay. The room included a sitting room and outdoor patio with garden furniture. The indoor heated pool was a great addition. I found all staff to be very friendly and cute. The head gardener, Ronnie, keeps the grounds beautifully (very nice of him!).

I noticed some minor snagging issues like slightly marked walls in certain areas.
