Lidt skuffende ophold på et ellers fint hotel.
Pros:

Dejligt hotel - men beliggenheden er ikke i nærheden af en by, hvorfor mulighederne for at vælge en anden restaurant er begrænset. Dejlig stort værelse, som dog var lidt mørkt. Vi kunne konstatere, at der er tale om et bryllups hotel, hvorfor der er meget stille i hverdagen og meget travlt i weekenden. Udmærket restaurant og bar på stedet, og fin morgenmad.

Cons:

Værelset var lidt mørkt. Beliggenheden for hotellet lige ud til en meget trafikeret vej. Qua det at hotellet er specialiseret i bryllupper, var der meget stille i hverdagen og meget travlt i weekenden. Der var temmelig meget støj fra etagen oven over værelset og uden for værelse den ene aften i forbindelse med afholdelse af en quiz aften i hotellet restaurant og bar - og dette helt til omkring midnat.
