Pros:

Goede locatie, niet ver van strand en winkels. Toch rustig gelegen en geschikt voor weekendje.
Uitgebreide keuze voor ontbijt.
Goede bedden zorgen voor goede nachtrust.

Cons:

Parkeermogelijkheid, je kan wel je bagage lossen maar moet dan op zoek naar betalende parkeermogelijkheid in de buurt.

Pros:

Gelijkvloerse kamer met ruime regendouche, precies wat ik nodig had om enkele dagen te overnachten met mijn mindervalide zoon ( geen rolstoelgebruiker)

Cons:

Er viel niets tegen en het was ook geen probleem dat de kamers wat maar naar achter lagen in het gebouw en er geen rechtstreekse buitenramen waren

Erg onhygiënische kamer. Erg jammer want voor de rest was alles prima in orde.
Pros:

Goede locatie, vriendelijke man.

Cons:

Jammer genoeg vuile kamers
Oorstokje onder bed, haren op de vloer en op de lakens, papieren zakdoekje achter de minibar, …
Algeheel echt niet hygiënisch!
