This was our first visit, everything was excellent. Unfortunately it did feel a bit cold - The staff did their best to adapt the air conditioning for us too. However, there was a back door that kept being opened and huge wafts of cold would come through. All the staff seemed lovely and went out of their way to take care of us. Food was delicious!
