Really nice hotel
Pros:

Location great. Really nice staff (especially reception)

Cons:

Breakfast was decent but not amazing. Half a mushroom on a full breakfast is just odd for example.

Bathroom radiator was stuck on at full temperature. So heat in there was unbearable.

Fantastisk personale fra ankomst til slut. God mad, roligt sted, pæne værelser, kommer bestemt igen.
Pros:

Beliggenhed, venligt personale, roligt sted.

Cons:

Der manglede spejl med lys man kunne bruge. Der manglede lidt opbevarings plads på badeværelset til toiletsager. Enkelt håndklæde var besked da vi ankom til værelset.
