breakfast variety ingredient quality loud music missing umbrellas

The breakfast here was REALLY good. I enjoyed the variety of options available each morning and the quality of the ingredients stood out. I also appreciated the cleanliness of the room. The housekeeping staff ensured it was super clean every day.

I found the music around the pool to be quite loud. The absence of umbrellas on the restaurant terrace also bothered me. I had to eat inside, away from the beautiful view.
