Pros:

Schone douche

Cons:

Het parkeren vonden we een hele hoge prijs, terwijl de uitrij-boom, 24 uur open stond en dat had niks met het slechte weer te maken. Toen we er een opmerking tegen de receptioniste maakte, kregen we zo’n standaard ingestudeerd antwoord.
Groot in het oog stond wel een bordje waarop op positieve reacties werden gevraagd graag met de naam van het personeelslid erbij.
Toen we op zondagavond iets wilde eten, konden ze alleen een bestaande pizza- bodem aanbieden wel met verse ingrediënten, daar hadden we geen zin in en zijn maar met een zakje chips in onze kamer gaan dineren.
Het ontbijt wat “gratis” werd aangeboden was erg eenvoudig, alleen maar toast brood of afgebakken broodjes, geen enkele snede lekker vers brood. Fruitsalade was zo goed als op toen wij kwamen, pindakaas uit de pot. Het zag er niet zo verzorgd uit, terwijl toch een behoorlijke prijs per nacht werd
gevraagd. Wel een omzettend aardige mevrouw bij het ontbijt gesproken ( sorry haar naam niet gevraagd) dat vonden we niet gepast. ( Thaise mevrouw)
Door slechte waren gedwongen op de kamer te blijven waar helaas maar 1 stoel aanwezig was. De tv overdag geen ontvangst. Gelukkig hadden we de iPad bij.

Pros:

Positive: quiet hotel, decently equipped rooms with comfortable beds and pillows, and a large shower. The breakfast was straightforward and simple, but nonetheless more than decent.

Cons:

No issues with the hotel. Only thing that does lack in the bathroom, is a toilet brush.

Bon accueil.

Cons:

N'oubliez pas de régler la climatisation avant de vous coucher... cela évite le chaud /froid durant la nuit.
