Spart euer Geld
Pros:

Die Lage ist magisch. Wunderschöne Natur.

Cons:

Wir hatten 2 Zimmer. Das 1. War nicht im Haus sondern in einer Art Bungalow. Muffig, extrem hellhörig. Neben unserem Zimmer war ein abgeschlossenes Zimmer. Der Maschienenraum? Tag und Nacht ein intermittierend lautes summen. Vergleichbar wie bei einer schleudernden Waschmaschiene. Unmöglich Schlaf zu finden.
Die Betten komplett durchgelegen.
Personal mürrisch... man fühlt sich auf keinen Fall willkommen. Die beiden Restaurants waren eher Kantinen. Bestellen nur an der Bar. Was zu Schlangen bis vor der Tür führt. Selbst abräumen selbstverständlich auch. Es hatte keine Spur von Gemütlichkeit. So frech, dafür soooo viel Geld zu verlangen. Wir bezahlten knapp 600eur für 2 Zimmer. Sämtliche Ruhe oder Romantik ade. Es gibt bessere Orte. SPART DAS GELD!

Pros:

De locatie

Cons:

Veel lawaai, we konden de buren horen praten in hun kamer. Het douchen was een hels lawaai, dat we ook van de buren konden horen.
Elke dag werd er opgeruimd in de keuken van het hotel tot rond middernacht.
We sliepen boven de keuken en de geur van frituurvet of bouillon was alom aanwezig.
Vlekken op de vloerbekleding en de badkamer was niet echt proper.
Voor die prijs had ik echt wel wat anders verwacht, de locatie was fantastisch, maar daar is dan ook alles mee gezegd, jammer genoeg!

Great location, nice hotel but some rooms need updating, expensive to stay.
Pros:

Location is fantastic, Boots Bar is , bed very comfortable

Cons:

Very expensive for the room we had, I don’t think it’s worth the cost. Food wasn’t as good as previous stays. I had the Cajun Salmon and it was just spicy hot and so was the rice, nothing to write home about to be honest.

Prachtige locatie en sfeervolle Inn. Eenvoudige kamers.
Pros:

Locatie is prachtig. De sfeer is fijn. De Boots bar is sfeervol, zeker al er muziek is in het weekend.

Cons:

Douche is ijskoud of te heet. Moet echt vervangen worden. Bedden zijn kort.

Pros:

Vriendelijk onthaal, goed maar simpel ontbijt en schone kamer. Absoluut waanzinnige locatie. Beetje gedateerd en informeel, precies goed.

Good to stay in the right location, but the hotel badly needs renovation and is understaffed.
Cons:

The room was awful, very poor furniture, small sized beds, old and outdated cabinet, very modest bathroom. The place is understaffed. Given the fully booked time of the year, the hotel should hire an adequate number of employees. The staff, even if they are very good at what they do, are overworking, with inevitable decrease in the quality of service. Please invest in your hotel and make it better! The location is well worth it. Nice abundant breakfast.
