Pros:

Good communication, also before my stay. Very welcoming lady at the reception. Well designed room with a good balance between design and function. Also very welcoming in the room with free water bottles and chocolats. Didn't get to taste the breakfast, because the breakfast at saturday starts at 8. And my bus left at 8 as well. But they made a breakfast package instead.

Cons:

Nothing in particular

Loistavalla sijainnilla varustettu viihtyisä hotelli, jossa oli mukava yöpyä.
Pros:

Aamiainen oli todella monipuolinen, maistuva ja tuore. Myös hotellin sijainti oli erinomainen, sillä kaikki palvelut ja kulkuyhteydet olivat aivan kävelymatkan päässä. Viihdyin täällä erittäin hyvin!;

Cons:

Kaikki sujui erittäin hyvin, eikä mikään varsinaisesti jäänyt harmittamaan. Majoitus vastasi täysin odotuksia.
