OK für eine kurze Nacht.
Pros:

Das Hotel war in Ordnung.

Cons:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer für Behinderte und das Waschbecken war deutlich zu weit unten. Der Duschvorhang hätte auch mal eine Wäsche vertragen,da war jede Menge Schimmel drin.

Die Betten waren leider extrem schmal, so dass wir nachts ständig aufgewacht sind.
