Beautiful views, clean room. Especially impressed with the breakfast and breakfast staff. Do not recommend the buffet dinner as value just isn’t there compared to the great breakfast, as there isn’t as much variety or even drinks included yet costs a lot. Dinner staff also seemed not interested. ...
