Potenzial ist da, allerdings renovierungsbedürftig
Pros:

Ein großer Parkplatz und die Anbindung war gut. Auch das Personal war freundlich.

Cons:

Wir hatten ganz viele Kleidermotten im Zimmer. Zudem ging um 23:30 Uhr plötzlich unser Feueralarm los, da anscheinend der Sensor verschmutzt (?) war

Really relaxed and enjoyable stay
Pros:

Staff were really attentive and friendly. Room was really clean and well presented. Bar was well stocked and well staffed. Pool was a surprise bonus, that really deserves better promotion.

Cons:

Beds are a standard double, which for us felt really small and compact. TV's had very limited channels. Shampoo and body wash were provided, but no conditioners. A shampoo / conditioner combination would serve both the women and the men.
