Pros:

Il personale educato

Cons:

Una struttura che mostra i suoi anni. Avrebbe bisogno di una ristrutturazione dai bagni alle imposte. La posizione vicino a giardini un po' trascurati.

Pros:

Niente

Cons:

A pomeriggio inoltrato ho avuto le chiavi della camera scoprendo che non era ancora stata fatta. Il personale non si è dimostrato molto gentile. Ho dovuto aspettare mezz’ora prima di poter entrare. La colazione scarsa e di pessima qualità. Cappuccino macchinetta imbarazzante. L’accesso all’hotel possibile solo dall’area di servizio dell’autostrada o tramite una stradina di campagna (unica opzione del navigatore). Non lo consiglio
