Pros:

Die Zimmer waren sehr schön wenn auch klein. Die Dusche war sehr gut. Das es immer wieder neue Snacks und sweets gab auf den Zimmern und die Wasserflaschen fand ich sehr nett. Das Essen im Restaurant ist sehr gut auch das Frühstück war sehr gut.

Cons:

Die Betten sind zu weich und auch ziemlich eng.

Need to be desperate to return.
Pros:

Rooms were nice.

Cons:

Was completely ignored at dinner. Gave order then waited to order a sweet….then again left. All in all food not good.
Breakfast wasn’t great …not everyone likes sourdough toast!

Séjour très agréable!
Pros:

Le check-in rapide, la présence de thés et collations dans la chambre, le petit déjeuner, le confort du lit, le fait de pouvoir souper sur place.

Tunnelmallinen ja siisti hotelli pienessä kylässä
Pros:

Ystävällinen henkilökunta.
Siistit ja hyvän kokoiset huoneet.
Maksuton pysäköinti ja sähköauton latausmahdollisuus lisämaksusta.

Cons:

Wifi toimi huonosti, mobiilidatallakin vain yhden operaattorin verkko toimi, eikä se sisältynyt datapakettiini, joten olin ilman internet-yhteyttä hotellissa. Myös huoneen television kanavat näkyivät huonosti.

Great place to stay, great staff and good food.
Pros:

We liked the check in procedure as it was quick and simple. The lady that checked us in gave us all the relevant details we needed for our stay.
We loved the hospitality tray, it's been a while since we saw so many treats on offer.
We thought the bed was comfy, and the shower was excellent.
We ate in the restaurant and we were well looked after, the food was very well cooked and tasty.
We liked the idea of the enhanced continental breakfast that's included in the room rate. We thought that it was just right especially if you had the pastries and cereals too.

Cons:

The room felt quite small and we think the bed was a small double.
The room also felt very warm through the night.
The walls are thin as we could hear the room next door using their shower.

A disappointing experience.
Pros:

The room and en-suite were spacious. Everything was spotlessly clean. Tea/coffee, water and snacks were provided. The bed was comfortable and a large fan was also in the room which was much appreciated during the recent hot weather.

Cons:

The rooms at the front of the hotel are noisy due to the hotel being located adjacent to a busy main road and junction. Delivery trucks parked right under the window. I had requested a room at the back of the hotel, which was also the room which was actually advertised/pictured on booking.com so I wanted to make sure I got that room, but I didn't. This was our third stay at the hotel, and there have definitely been cutbacks in the quality of food on offer and general standards. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.
