Pros:

Great location, very clean hotel

Cons:

Didn’t like the food, sloppy scrambled eggs and spicy sausages with the bangers and mash so after first day didn’t eat at the hotel again as plenty of good restaurants near by

Na wat opstart gedoe een prima verblijf
Pros:

Was iets misgegaan bij boeking. Kwamen om 1 uur in de nacht aan na 12 uur reizen. Kregen een 2 persoons kamer met 1 bed terwijl me met 3 waren. Vervelende discussie gehad en volgende dag na overleg netjes opgelost en upgrade kamer gekregen. Mooie kamer

Cons:

Personeel in het begin niet bepaald hartelijk. Na het gedoe en de discussie overdreven vriendelijk.
