I loved the bed. it was comfy even though I had books 2 twins we managed.
The breakfast was amazing. Compliments to the chef indeed.

Pleasant. I think the small things can be improved upon
Pros:

Breakfast was nice and tasty

Cons:

The room was dusty on the counters, and the curtains needed a wash. The extractor fan was also dirty and very noisy. Staffing at the breakfast service was a bit slow.
