mixed feelings about my stay
poor knowledgeslow service
the restaurant experience was disappointing. it took too long for the food to arrive. also, i found the product knowledge of the staff to be quite poor, the waiter and bartender included. this affected the service and the overall enjoyment of my meal, and we waited a very long time for drinks.
