Pros:

Notre suite et sa vue magnifique.

Cons:

Pas de boissons ou de petit snack de bienvenue pour une suite occupée durant 3 nuits !
Personnel du PDJ et du restaurant peu souriant et pas flexible du tout.
Si vous signalez une intoolérance pour l'accompagnement d'unn plat, on vous répondez que ce n'est pas un problème de l'enlever mais aucun remplacement possible !
C'est avec ou sans rien d'autre !

Wir waren froh, nicht nur eine Nacht geblieben zu sein. :)
Pros:

Grandiose Aussicht! Sehr ansprechende Atmosphäre und geräumiges Zimmer. Bequeme Betten und sehr gutes Frühstück. Kostenlos parken. Wir haben die Tage sehr genossen.

Cons:

Nur die Mücken waren etwas lästig. Stechen zwar nicht, aber verleiden einem dann doch den Aufenthalt im Freien.
