I found the food to be very well done I particularly enjoyed the presentation. The shrubbery and landscaping around the premises was well maintained. I appreciated the views I had .
The reception staff seemed preoccupied I felt a bit rushed during check-in. My room faced the courtyard It was quite noisy I could hear other guests. Breakfast service was slow It took a while to get tea.
