Udany pobyt, polecam.
Pros:

Duży i przestronny hotel, odpowiednia ilość miejsc parkingowych. Miła obsługa. Pokój dostaliśmy wcześniej niż planowaliśmy. Obsługa pomocna. Naprawdę duży pokój z wygodnym łóżkiem i ciepłą kołdrą, czysta łazienka. Przestronne wnętrze oraz zaciemniająca zasłona jak najbardziej na plus.

Cons:

W ulotce zabrakło godzin otwarcia basenu, gdy się na niego wybraliśmy był już nieczynny. Niestety goście w pokoju obok byli bardzo głośno, ostatecznie ktoś zareagował, ale po długim okresie czasu. Brak wliczonego śniadania w cenie również uważam za minus.
Pokoje od strony ulicy nieco głośne.
