The breakfast offered a lovely choice. The courtyard provided a beautiful space to sit and relax. I found the staff friendly. They were helpful throughout my stay.
The parking situation presented narrow spaces. It was difficult to maneuver the car in and out. I also found the spa needed some cleaning. I noticed this .
