Pros:

Das Personal beim Check-in war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, die Zummer waren sauber, sehr ansprechend und liebevoll eingerichtet. In der Lobby herrschte eine einladende, warme und gemütliche Atmosphäre. Besonders schön war, dass man sich zu jeder Zeit einen heißen Tee bzw. Kaffee in der Lobby holen konnte.

Would definitely recommend.
Pros:

Lovely room. Really friendly and helpful staff. Nice cozy reception area to have a quick bite and a drink.

Cons:

We would have preferred a proper door between the bedroom and bathroom not a glass door where you can hear and see everything.

Pros:

Er is gratis parkeergelegenheid.
Het ontbijt is biologisch en goed verzorgd.
Kamer is zoals op foto.

Cons:

Als je 2 grote koffers hebt kun je niet zo goed kwijt op de kamer. Er is een kast. Als je meer dagen verblijft raad ik je aan om de koffers uit te pakken ivm ruimte.

Good location for a short stay
Pros:

Good location. Easy parking. Pleasant decor

Cons:

Seemed too much emphasis was put on the lovely decor, a good deal of which affected functionality. Long drapes covered the heating element for the room. Would have to pull the drapes open or tuck up over top of heater to heat room.
