Mature couple from Oakland , USA
Guest score: 8.29 / 10 8.29 average,
+ Helpfulness and friendliness of reception desk staff.
- Seemingly unfriendliness of kitchen staff. No smiles or greetings in the morning. Also, quality of coffee could be improved by brewing it from freshly ground beans. We found out that eggs were available on our last day there, but no mention of this had been made by a written note or by the dining room staff.
