Geen 4 sterren, maar comfortabel voor 1 nacht
Pros:

Gezellig hotel, heerlijke bedden, en top locatie met gratis parkeren. Gratis koffie en gezellige lounche. Ook een sportschool.

Cons:

Geluidsoverlast van dichtslaande deuren en van buiten.
Er was overdag geen snack te krijgen. Er is een soort restaurant, waar je in de avond soep en een broodje kan bestellen.
Maar ik vond dit niet echt 4 sterren achtig zoals we eerder hebben gezien.
Neem dan Hotel Kria waar echt alles was en maar 3 sterren krijgt (?).
