a nice stay
very nice viewkind stafftasteful decorsmall room
the room provided very nice views of the 18th hole, the swilcan bridge, and the sea, it was fine. the staff showed themselves as kind and accommodating. on site restaurants were delicious, everything was so nice. the decor was tasteful, and the rooms very comfortable.
the room was small, and it feel cold, also very noisy. there wasnt room to even unpack a suitcase, really an inconvenience. clothes had to hang over the minibar and coffee making facilities, so smart clothes were next to kettle and cups.
