Nous avons aimé le restaurant, le confort et la taille des chambres. Literie excellente avec choix d oreiller dur ou mou. La propreté et la gentillesse du personnel

Un peu excentrée et nécessité d une voiture Attention rien n'est prévu pour loger le chauffeur si vous en avez un, et il ne lui est pas permis d accéder au sanitaire pour sa toilette.. Dommage

The property architecture. Food was good.

1. Inflated pricing for food. Absolutely ridiculous. 2. Rooms had water seeping through the walls. 3. There was no room service available on a few nights. 4. Housekeeping was very ineffecient and bad, they even created a mess in the room and spilled the drinks. 5. The rooms were suffocating as the windows were glued shut. 6. Due to lack of ventillation and water seeping through the walls, the room smelled bad throughout.
