Pros:

Vriendelijk personeel, grote kamer, goede wifi en prima bed

Cons:

Het was druk in de pub, waardoor personeel niet alles heeft uitgelegd en was de gezelligheid goed in de kamer te horen was. In de kamer naast ons lag iemand lekker te slapen die goed door de muren te horen was. We konden in de ochtend niet uit het hotel. Personeel heeft niet uitgelegd hoe we het hoetel konden verlaten, gelukkig liep er nog iemand van de schoonmaakdienst rond die ons vriendelijk uitlegde hoe we het hotel konden verlaten.
