Arrival around 6:30 p.m. No one at reception apart from 4 customers who are already waiting.||Then when we have problems getting wifi (with a QR code that doesn't work) no one can help us, says the waitress. …

The breakfast is exceptionally good. The breakfast lady was charming and very friendly. Unfortunately the service in the hotel is not. The room wasn't as described, the staff were overwhelmed and then I was called later asking if I had paid and where the key was. As already mentioned before...overwhelm.

Beautiful hotel-inn with a stylish garden appearance. Attentive, friendly service, well-prepared food, extensive wine list with regional specialties.A separate smoking area would probably be desirable, as we were "fogged" by two tables, which was detrimental to the quality of the food and the moment.
