Fijne tussenstop voor doorreis in een leuk stadje met voldoende faciliteiten
Pros:

Fijn hotel voor een tussenstop naar je vakantiebestemming of terugreis. Vriendelijke personeel, ruim opgezette kamers, airconditioning op de kamer en voldoende mogelijkheden om een raam open te zetten. Het hotel heeft een samenwerking met het restaurant wat direct naast het hotel is gevestigd, hier kun je heerlijk in de Biergarten eten en drinken.
Het ontbijt is uitgebreid, met uitzicht op de schildpadden en er is een mogelijkheid om tegen betaling de auto in de parkeergarage te parkeren.
