het was niet anders, maar als we niet hadden betaald waren we omgedraaid.
Pros:

Het bed was niet verkeerd en het ontbeit was redelijk. ik kom qua positieve punten niet veel verder dan dat het overige viel zwaar tegen.

Cons:

de ligging, de ontvangst, het hotel is zwaar gedateerd en de de kamers ook.
