Pros:

Location great. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room very clean but not elegant. I do think hotels have become overpriced. The max amount of time for a one night stay is not even 24 hours!!

Cons:

Breakfast which was not included in the price was chaotic. I am not a fan of buffet breakfast anyhow and believe this should be served and not this self service idea. There was no order whatsoever and bordering dangerous with teapots and hot coffee. People going and coming in all directions with plates of food, hot drinks etc. There were some elderly couples who struggled to get their teas and coffees. Surely tea, coffee could be served to the table.

Pros:

Schönes Hotel, gutes Frühstück und nettes Personal. Die Lage ist etwas abgelegen aber in einer schönen Gegend. Zum Strand konnte man in ca. 25 min laufen.
