some shortcomings

weak shower small ensuite
the ensuite shower room was very small. i doubt a larger person could sit comfortably on the toilet, with risk of hitting their knees. the shower also had a weak water flow. i never saw staff except for check-in. there were no instructions for towel changes.

The breakfast was wonderful. I especially liked the fresh fruit and pastries! The staff was very attentive to my needs. They always greeted me with a smile. I found the gardens to be well kept and beautiful, with plenty of space to relax.
