Our stay was out of this world. Staff was warm and welcoming.

Pros: Breakfast was delicious and prepared considering our diet restrictions. Their breakfast specials was mouth watering and yummy. Both cold and hot foods were offered to us and were thoroughly prepared. We enjoyed our breakfast.

Cons: We paid for a platter, bouquet, chocolate and a few other treats but the establishment was not aware of it. The staff saw the money but they didn't know what it was for. We ended up agreeing on spending it on other things.
