Pros:

Fantastic ambience and nature. Great location, good food, friendly and very helpful staff. Swiming pool was really great. Lots of facilities and things to do at the premises. Highly recommend.

Cons:

At the road side, a bit noisy in the weekend from the road and bars around. But still worth it.

Easter 🐣 holiday well spent
Pros:

The Easter set up for the kids, the managers are going we got gifts as a compensation for the egg hunt . some staff are really friendly and helpful 🙏

Cons:

Good location and friendly staff. However, the property could improve on cleanliness and would benefit from some renovations. The restaurant payment process was a bit inconvenient, as payment is requested after every order consolidating bills for payment at checkout would be much better for guests.

Pros:

Colazione buona e abbondante, un po' di confusione sul bancone.
Porzioni di cibo esageratamente abbondanti ma di buona qualità, servizio lento
Personale alla reception molto cortese e disponibile

Cons:

Sicuramente il locale ha bisogno di manutenzione.
Essendo un locale utilizzato per feste e ricevimenti è abbastanza rumoroso.
