a good culinary experience
sourdough breadattentive servicescrambled eggs
The dinner included sourdough bread and fig oil. Breakfast featured masterfully done scrambled eggs on toast. The staff offered attentive service, one of the best services i've ever seen.
The pool, while lovely, I found to be a bit cold for swimming. I believe the heating system may need adjusting.
