Goede kamers,zeer slecht restaurant
Pros:

De kamers en bedden waren goed. Wel wat achterstallig onderhoud, zoals gordijnen die niet meer in de rails hingen. Er was wel een bureau maar geen stopcontact. De zeeppompjes in de badkamer deden het niet.

Cons:

Het restaurant viel ons heel erg tegen. Op de eerste avond (zondag), wilden we dineren. Dat kon niet in het restaurant maar moest dan in de bar. De keuken of de chef van de keuken had de boel niet op orde. Steaks waren uitverkocht. De Tonijn was doorgebakken terwijl deze rosé hoorde te zijn. Het ijs wat bij de cheesecake hoorde was uitverkocht. De Pavlova en de Cheesecake kwamen uit de vrieser. De cheesecake was opgewarmd in de magnetron, zodat het een koude punt met warme vulling en zompige bodem geworden was. De sla zouden we in Nederland niet meer op tafel durven te zetten. Slap en bruin. Al met al zouden wij het echt afraden hier te gaan dineren.
