A motel, not a hotel
Pros:

Comfortable bed. Nice staff.

Cons:

The hotel is located amongst several car yards, just off the freeway. Breakfast is average. For over €150 this was really poor value.

Shambolic hotel
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The staff were surly and rude.
There was no tap water in the room in the evening so no wash or shower before bed. Breakfast was disorganised with lots of items not being replaced when they ran out.
Very poor value for money, would not go again.

great place, good location and very clean and comfy
Pros:

the room was clean and very spacious. we booked for three but our third backed out last minute so we didn't need all that room but we couldn't change it. the beds were comfy and the bathroom was clean but the shower was tiny. nice tv with a table and couch. the staff were helpful and nice and it was great to have an elevator. the parking area was good as well.

Cons:

the small shower was very slippery. i almost fell six times.
