Location is lovely and the staff lovely too. Lily and Stephen did their best to put the we gs right.

The food was poor. The attention to detail by staff was poor (lacking in awareness, forgetting to attend to requests). The food at dinner was simply awful. Services such as valet parking were non-existant). My expectations had been very high but reality was very poor.
