Comfortable Stay; Crowded Breakfast Area
Reception was friendly and efficient. The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable, with convenient nearby parking. However, the breakfast area was crowded during peak hours, leading to limited seating. Overall, a pleasant stay.

The room was quiet and comfortable, and breakfast was very good. The courtyard and pool areas are beautiful. We enjoyed trying to identify all the topiary animals!
