Wonderful food, service, and overall very nice.

The bathroom seems as if it needs a refresh and some of the furniture was in need of being replaced as it was worn out.

Breakfast was good, just that I was used to dish for myself (buffet), so I was expecting to do so, but anyway, because of the covid issue, I understood

I was just discouraged with the extraction fan in the toilet which was not working
