Schönes Hotel und gute Lage
Pros:

Ein sehr schönes Gebäude und eine tolle Aussicht vom Zimmer aus. Die Zimmer waren auch schön, die Betten ziemlich weich und auf der einen Seite etwas abfallend, was nicht so bequem war. Dafür die Decke und das Kissen umso mehr! :) Frühstück war auch gut.

Cons:

An unseren Scheiben waren extrem viele Fliegen. Wofür die Unterkunft natürlich nichts kann. Vor dem Fenster waren nochmehr, deshalb konnten / wollten wir nicht lüften.
