amazing stay with awesome food!

modern bedroom fantastic food
the bedroom was modern and well appointed with a clean bathroom (i loved the practical design!). the staff made such a fuss over my dog, really heartwarming. food in the restaurant was also fantastic, especially the breakfast.
I noticed a need for more outdoor furniture. There were limited benches and no parasols. guests ended up sitting on the ground, which wasn't very comfortable and seemed easily fixable.
