I found the breakfast to be perfect in a beautiful setting. The in-house restaurants were very good and provided various choices. I noticed the staff was both friendly and helpful. I particularly appreciated the prompt service I received.

I found the water replenishing in conference halls was not good. This was a minor inconvenience, though it affected the overall experience slightly.
