The breakfast menu was varied. the attentiveness of the staff during breakfast and dinner impressed me. it was also good to know they remain open during the winter. Handy for a short break. we also had an amazing terrace!
there were no coffee facilities in the room, and no price list for the drinks was provided. the adult only pool also allowed kids in.
