The breakfast was particularly good. I especially liked the porridge. The free parking was convenient. The location allowed easy access.
The younger staff members could smile more often. I wasn't offered the bar menu. I only saw the main restaurant menu. Waiting for cutlery was a bit long. It took over 20 minutes after the meal arrived.
