Very comfortable room. Pillows were too hard though and uncomfortable and gave me a headache.
Breakfast was good and evening dinner was also very good.
Extended our stay mainly due to the staff being so helpful and attentive.
Some slight issues on the room on arrival were resolved instantly and staff could not be more helpful or apologetic.
