The buffet breakfast was really yummy. It included a large array of dishes on offer. The staff were very professional and friendly, i must say. The room was serviced daily and spotlessly clean.
The bar experience was a bit disappointing. The barman seemed not very observant. When I asked him to clear the table, he seemed bewildered. After a long wait, I decided to go elsewhere.
