Goede overnachting voor doorreis.
Pros:

Goede bedden lekker geslapen, fijne ruime kamers, rustig en stil.
Ontbijt in bijzondere kerkzaal.

Cons:

Eten vond ik wat minder en de bediening bij het eten. Als je vroeg wat voor saus het gerecht lag (bij een gerecht waar je dat niet verwacht), dan werd er aangegeven moet je aan de kok vragen, menu’s werden over een muurtje aangegeven.
Douchen in bad.
