Überragende Aussicht aus unserem Zimmer mit Meerblick aus dem 12.Stock.
Pros:

Überragend war die Aussicht aus dem 12.Stock mit den bodentiefen Fenstern. Das Frühstück war sehr vielfältig, als Deutscher haben zunächst die Brötchen vermisst. Das Brot war aber sehr gut. Die Vielfalt auch hier sehr gut.

Cons:

Die Größe des Bad. Es war schon sehr klein und beengt, wobei die Dusche sehr komfortabel war.
Einen ausreichend großen Schrank hatten wir leider auch nicht, wir mussten die 5 Tage aus dem Koffer leben.

Dejligt ophold
Pros:

Vi fik en god modtagelse, selvom vi kom efter kl. 23.00. Vores ophold var kort da vi skulle videre næste dag, men det var jeglig morgen mad og god service.

Cons:

Jeg var skuffet over at vi ikke kunne få en bagage vogn, for vi havde samlet 80 - 90 kg oppakning til vores motorcykler, som vi måtte slæbe ind på hotellet, og da vi var trætte efter en lang dags kørsel, så var det virkelig ikke noget vi ville afslutte dagen med.
