Prima verblijf, leuke bar, vriendelijke mensen
Pros:

Ontbijt was helemaal prima voor aantrekkelijke prijs en ook de pub/bar was erg leuk met heel vriendelijk personeel. Bedden ook goed (wel wat smal) en schoon

Cons:

Het was allemaal een beetje out-dated en aan vernieuwingsbeurt toe, voor toch een stevige prijs. Geen airco, de kamer was erg warm. Ook op flinke afstand van het stadje

I did wish there was a refrigerator in our room.
