Nothing great.

Hotel was ok. But Resturant was a sham. If you are Asian or black don't go. Had to feed the kids so I waited for 45 minutes. Before I had to go to the desk andpersonally give them my order. Than another 20 minutes for food. Then I had to go myself ask them for ice cream for the kids. 3 times and then also the ice cream didn't arrive. The waitress put us on the last and wonkiest tabe and forget about us. If not for the kids I would have walked off. Resturant experience was a shambless. Looked like they only serve white folks.

We object very strongly to your comments which suggests that there are some sort of racial issues here. We have guests from all nationalities, colours and religions staying and everyone is made welcome. With regards to ordering your food, our menu clearly states to order at the bar but as you apparently only ordered food from the Children's Menu we are uncertain if you looked at the Main Menu, although our staff working that evening assure us that they verbally informed you to order at the bar. 20 minutes for the delivery of freshly cooked food is not unreasonable and we provide a colouring sheet and crayons to occupy children while they wait. Regarding the ice cream, unfortunately it was very busy and food service can take longer than expected. Our waitress had no option but to put you on the last available table as the restaurant was fully booked. We have nothing further to add and believe your racist comments to be totally unreasonable and out of order.
