the location was perfect, awesome for easy access to nearby attractions! the staff were very attentive and polite. i particularly appreciated the attention to detail in the room service, it was perfect. the gardens are well-kept.
The breakfast buffet lacked some variety. I hoped to see a wider selection of fresh fruits. more options for gluten-free pastries would be a nice addition, too. this could significantly enhance the breakfast experience with dietary restrictions.
