The staff was phenomenal..very kind and very helpful. The food was perfect way more than I could imagine eating with so many options of meat, pastries and bread. The environment was fancy yet cozy. The view was gorgeous and a good place to walk around! The bed wasn’t that comfortable but that’s so small complaint compared to the amazing experience I had I didn’t think twice about it. I will be going back next visit!
