I noted attentive personnel offering quick responses to requests. The grounds displayed mature plants with structures designed to be admired. The food tasted very well, and ingredients tasted fresh. My suite upgrade improved my time here. The suite provided extra space.
The coffee temperature was below expectation, cooling down quite fast after service. It was still drinkable though.
