Entsprach unseren Erwartungen, vielleicht sogar etwas mehr.
Pros:

Empfang und Belegschaft seriös, sehr freundlich und nett. Besonders die Mitarbeiter beim Frühstück um 8 Uhr früh und auch im weiteren Verlauf des Vormittags waren absolut Top, man bemerkt dass die Leute Spaß an der Arbeit haben.

Cons:

Man sagte uns es wäre bis 1 Uhr Nachts besetzt, dies war nicht der Fall und wir wurden von einer männlichen Person um 0:30 Uhr angeschnauzt was wir hier wollen. Wir dachten uns lediglich; Wir sind Hotelgäste"
Vermutlich war diese Person überarbeitet.

Cons:

Beim Frühstück musste fast um einen Platz am Tisch gekämpft werden. Das Hotel bietet auch Frühstück für nicht Gäste und diese reservieren Tische vorab. Keine Teller mehr vorhanden. Das Personal war zwar sehr freundlich doch nicht vorausschauend.
