Balanced stay at the hotel

beautiful settingfriendly staffamazing viewsmall roomuncomfortable bedunattractive bathroom
The setting was beautiful. I enjoyed several places to sit and relax outside. The garden had amazing views. The staff were warm, friendly, and efficient. The food stood out, especially the breakfast.
The room was quite small. The bed would have been okay for one person. It was unsuitable and uncomfortable as a double bed in a double room. The bathroom was unattractive, and the door did not close properly.
