Excellent ideally placed hotel with friendly staff
Pros:

Tasteful rooms in ideally-situated hotel with happy helpful staff. Each floor served cold still and sparkling water. Nice bar and pool area. Short walk from train station and many excellent restaurants, and tourism office I woukd certainly return..

Cons:

A fridge in the room and ice-machine on floors would have been the cherry on the cake

A good hotel in a prime location
Pros:

This is the second time I’ve stayed at this hotel. It’s quite literally next to the town where all the bars and restaurants are located, but not noisy . There’s quite a bit of parking around the hotel grounds but there’s a charge. The hotel is well decorated and clean. Check in was simple and the staff are polite and helpful. My room was a nice size, very clean and had a large comfortable double bed. I also had a balcony with a view. Bathroom and toilet were in separate rooms which was good. I didn’t eat any meals in the hotel, preferring to go to town even for breakfast. Check out was also quite simple and efficient.
