Prima verblijf. Goed restaurant en geweldig ontbijt
Pros:

Prima hotel. Vriendelijk personeel. Geweldig ontbijt wat je bestelt en dan vers wordt bereid. Goed restaurant en gezellig pub in heel rustige omgeving

Cons:

Er is geen airco op de kamer, alleen op de gang. Als het warm is wordt de kamer best warm. Kamers hebben dan wel een ventilator

Pros:

Coffee in rooms was lovely.
The breakfast was delicious.

Cons:

Would have preferred fresh milk in the bedroom. Personally, I'm not a fan of long life .
However, I'm sure if I'd have asked at the bar, they would have got me some.

Always a great stay.
Pros:

Lovely setting if you’re content to stay in the vicinity of the hotel. If you wanted more choice for food options you’d need to drive.

Cons:

I stayed during record high temperatures and there was a single fan in the room that wasn’t connected or turned on so it was difficult to quickly reduce the temperature in the room. Of course the hotel have no control over weather conditions.

Excellent in every way.
Pros:

Lovely room - immaculate with excellent bathroom, great shower and comfortable bed. Very nice decor as a bonus!
Excellent meal in an atmospheric bar, with a superb breakfast.
Situated in a beautiful small village; very quiet.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing.
The only, really small niggle, was not having a shelf in the shower so everything had to be put on the floor.

Great location for a hotel.
Pros:

Very nice location of the hotel and good food at a reasonable price.

Cons:

Walls are a bit thin and also some rooms have noisy vents outside of them making it a must to have windows closed although fans are provided in rooms.

Pros:

Good restaurant.

Cons:

No air conditioning in summer time.
A 20 cm diameter hole for ventilation directly through the wall of the bathroom where you can see outside. Must be freezing cold in winter.
