The breakfast spread was delicious, featuring a variety of dishes from continental to local Kerala specialties. The staff made our experience memorable with their warm hospitality. However, the renovations needed in the bathroom area slightly took away from the overall experience. Overall, it was great value for money with some minor areas for improvement.
