Cold cooked breakfast, they must have only one chef for the breakfast as we had to book a time slot for breakfast but the breakfast room was empty. But it was tiny room for the breakfast compared to the amount of rooms. Portion wise to charge £40 for a cooked breakfast is laughable. The room AC wouldn’t turn off so it was a freezing cold room which they just gave us a space heater for, rather than fix the issue or move our room, it was still freezing after that. Honestly save your money and stay somewhere else. The only good thing was the spa facilities but you can just buy a pass for that
