Pros:

Super Lage direkt in der Hauptstraße, öffentlicher car park 5min zu Fuß entfernt. Sehr schönes Zimmer mit großem Bad, außergewöhnlich nettes Personal und tolles Frühstück a la carte mit Bedienung. Zimmer war ziemlich aufgeheizt, aber bei 30 Grad normal und es war ein großer Ventilator vorhanden der auch schon lief. Freitag morgens ist ein kleiner Markt direkt vor dem Hotel.

Cons:

Enge Treppe nach oben in die Zimmer, aber machbar und kein Problem.
