Lovely views but a few small points for improvemen

A small quibble, it would be nice to be given a free bottle of water every day when the room is cleaned rather than just on your first night. Small things make a difference. Also the restaurant cover charge of €4 per head is rather pricey and was imposed even though they didn’t provide gluten free bread as requested so one of us couldn’t even eat any of it. However the views are stunning and the pool is lovely.

Es ist ein Berghote und hat eine traumhafte Lage, leider war das Wetter nicht sehr gut und es hat in stark Geregnet. Das Zimmer war etwas in doe Jahre gekommen aber sonst ganz ok. Gutes Essen und ein gutes Frühstück dürfte ich zu einem eher hohen Preis geniessen.
