Hotel charges for made up, arbitrary payments, and TWICE at that
Pros:

Good location in the town centre but far from anything important

Cons:

They did not release the hold on my card. Instead they charged it twice. I now have to waste time to run a chargeback. So far they refunded only one of the two unauthorised charges. I didn't have access to a washing machine, and the pool room was cold.

Cons:

The first room we had, had black mold all over the bathroom. The second room we moved to, had a puddle in the bathroom from the leaking ceiling. And the floors were damp. The heated pool, is not heated it is very cold. The outside doors were open 24/7 allowing the freezing cold air in to the pool and room areas. I do not recommend staying there!
