The property of Estancia is truly wonderful and beautifully maintained gardens are magical. People working in the hotel are nice and helpful. The rooms are kind of average and I would expect crispy white linens for bedding, which was not the case. In addition, the breakfast was a total disappointment! We were served black-burned toasts, and 3 days old cooked and cold potatoes. Chia pudding was horrible, also it looked like it was prepared very long ago and inedible. I couldn't believe my eyes how this can pass the QC in the kitchen in this hotel. All together it is a true disappointment that the food is half preprocessed and such a low quality not matching the property elegance and the elevated concept this hotel is advertised.
