An sich schön, aber kleine Abstriche.
Pros:

Schönes Gebäude und Anlage.

Cons:

Direkt an einer viel befahrenen Straße. Fahrstuhl und Treppenhaus defekt und wir mussten 10-15 zu Fuß laufen um zum frühstücken oder an den Pool zu kommen. Mit 2 Kindern vergisst man auch mal was im Zimmer und es war unpraktisch so weit zu laufen. Essen am Pool könnte besser sein. Und es gab viele Ratten im Garten, deshalb haben wir die Terassentüren immer geschlossen gehalten.

A nice hotel in a beautiful area and very convenient for travel.
Pros:

The location was great. The staff was very nice. We didn't get a chance to use the pool or services. The amenities were nice as well, always a little gift in the room.

Cons:

The room was a little dark and felt old. There were ants in the bathroom (they didn't bother us but there were quite a lot. The shower was a little small. On the first morning, we were given gluten-free bread but it was microwaved so it was very chewy. On the second day, I asked if the bread could be baked instead. There must have been a miscommunication because it was also microwaved and chewy.
