A truly welcoming, happy family friendly experience.
Pros:

The warm feeling of comfort and cleanliness, also the array of facilities

Cons:

The radiator in our room unfortunately was making a noise and the sauna out of order. But so much else made up for it.

Lovely and comfie
Pros:

Very helpful staff. Lovely hotel. Very comfortable

Cons:

Sauna broken. No option of a lift. Probably not necessary as only 2 floors but even a ramp would help lug heavy suitcases down.
No decaffeinated drink options
