Ambiente beeindruckend, manches allerdings eher lau.
Pros:

Ein sehr gediegenes Flair, großes Mobiliar,
Teekanne mit zwei schönen Tassen

Cons:

Es nützen die schönsten zwei Ohrensessel nichts, wenn das Zimmer zu dunkel und keine Stehlampe vorhanden ist - am Abend unmöglich zu lesen.
Das größte Problem allerdings war, dass die Dusche nur lauwarmes Wasser bot.
