awesome breakfastslow wi-fimalfunctioning remote
the breakfast met my expectations.
The wi-fi was terribly slow and unreliable. I expected a much faster connection. also, the television remote in my room did not function properly, requiring multiple attempts to change channels. this was particularly frustrating .

The house features elegant decor! it creates a calm atmosphere. Staff members were friendly. They really catered to our stay. Breakfast was delicious, and the homemade cakes were lovely.
