Poor and inconsistent service
Pros:

The location is excellent, the rooms were immaculately clean with wonderful toiletries, and the common areas are very agreeable and welcoming

Cons:

Very disappointing service in the restaurant and bar. Staff were inattentive, often chatting with each other instead of managing orders, leading to long waits, forgotten items, and wrong dishes. When mistakes happened, the team was entirely unapologetic.
Hotel policies are also poorly communicated and inconsistently enforced. We were told we couldn't order food on the terrace and had to move inside, yet later saw another guest being served meals outdoors. The lack of training and care from the staff really impacted our stay.
