Völlig Entspannt
Pros:

Bequemes, großes Bett. Schönes Badezimmer. Toller Garten mit Vogelstimmen zum Frühstück. Offene Frühstücks Veranda und alles sehr geschmackvoll, aber nicht übertrieben eingerichtet. Sehr zuvorkommendes Personal, das immer zu einem Small Talk bereit war.

Cons:

Um Das Bett herum gab es nicht mehr viel Platz im Zimmer.
Die inkl. Fußmassage wurde aufgrund der Feiertage nur am Anreisetag angeboten - dann sollte man an solchen Tagen keine Werbung damit machen. Andere Massage-Salons in der Stadt waren trotz Feiertage hingegen geöffnet.
