Pros:

Ein aussergewöhnliches Hotel! Es sind die kleinen Sachen, die überzeugen: das täglich frische Wasser im Zimmer, die cookies, der Begrüssungsdrink, der stets warme Wasserkocher im Gang (keiner im Zimmer der Platz braucht und man nie weiss, was der Vorgänger da gekocht hat). Toller Garten in absolut ruhiger Lage, überall im und ums Haus Sitzmöglichkeiten. Sehr bequeme Betten, wir haben sonst praktisch immer Rückenprobleme.
Ausgezeichnetes Frühstück und Restaurant. Grosser Parkplatz.
