Breakfast needs attention

Breakfast was a bit shambolic. Scrambled egg, bacon, mushrooms and sausage for a cooked option is lacking somewhat. Even with such little hot selection it was rarely replenished meaning a wait. When the hotel is full, they'll never cope with thr size of the kitchen and the restaurant. That was the only disappointing thinking. Other than that, a faultless stay.

L'unica pecca di questo hotel è quello di non avere orari per adulti e bambini sull'uso delle piscine. Impossibile rilassarsi e godere delle piscine se i bambini urlano e schizzano l'acqua. Un'altra cosa , avere una sala del ristorante dedicato a famiglie con bambini. Non mi sono rilassata , anzi ero stressata fra urla dei bambini e genitori incapaci ad controllare i figli. Personalmente questa struttura la vedo come solo per adulti. Spendere soldi dove non mi posso rilassare mi irrita.
