Great Place, Great People, Comfy Bed
Pros:

Breakfast was always available with plenty of different options, the Waffles, Crepes and Pancakes were very good could always get a smell of them in the mornings. Unfortunately we didn’t have the chance to get breakfast due to scheduling so can’t comment anymore than that.

Cons:

The Pool was closed and although it was winter when we were there it would have been nice to cool off in the pool as there were days we were very hot
