really good dining and restful stay

spacious room comfortable bed

my room was spacious and provided everything i needed. the bed was comfortable, allowing me a good night's sleep! the bathroom had an excellent shower along with beautiful towels and toiletries.

One bedside table lamp lacked a bulb. there was insufficient milk provided for hot drinks. the cold buffet at breakfast was limited, and i think some fruit would have been nice.
