late breakfast poor soundproofing
The breakfast service began too late. I could not wait that long and had to leave, so I missed breakfast and wasted money. The lack of soundproofing between rooms was also a problem. I heard noise from neighboring rooms which was quite disruptive .

Adequate Stay

window view modern bathroom raw bite sticky batter
The room was spacious. I noticed a sofa in the window, from which I could view the valley. The bathroom was modern. I enjoyed super breakfasts.
The food was not very good. I found the brie bites to be raw, and the batter was sticky. I saw no evidence of garlic or butter on the garlic bread, so I was disappointed.
