efficient staffreally good foodlimited equipment
the staff shone, accommodating every request with excellent efficiency. i really was like nothing was too much trouble for them. dining in-house was a treat, the food was really good and i had a really warm welcome at this beautiful hotel.
the gym's limited equipment was a bit of a letdown i hoped for more variety for a proper workout. it really only has the basics, restricting exercise routines.
