Reasonable hotel
Pros:

Has a gym with swimming pool sauna and steam room.

Cons:

It’s showing its age and becoming dated. Surprised parking isn’t included as part of the stay. Expensive for what it is

Very comfortable stay.
Pros:

The breakfast choices were very good. I liked 20% off food and drink for no room cleaning; everyone's a winner. The size of rooms with a small sofa and 2 big beds was a bonus.

Cons:

I didn't know the area and didn't know it was on such a main road. I did ask for a quiet room and was given an inward looking room fortunately

Orida as a base for Detlng antique fair.
Pros:

We booked this hotel as it was close to Detlng antique fair. The room was a good size and comfortable. It was fully equipped with the usual kettle and iron etc. Breakfast was an excellent buffet.

Cons:

The shower had poor pressure. We had to wait a bit too long for bar service in late afternoon and some tables hadn't been cleared of previous food and drink orders. There was a lack of plug points in our room.
