Trip to celebrate husband's birthday.
Pros:

The property is in a perfect location, by the High Street, not far fron Market Square. The breakfast was very good, good selection of hot food to order and cereals, fruits and juices that you could help yourself to. Staff very attentive and property very clean. We had a ground floor room which was spacious and a huge, very comfortable bed.

Cons:

Can't think of anything.

Uitstekend, sfeervol, karakeristiek hotel
Pros:

Wij hadden kamer 10 en 11, gelegen buiten het hoofdgebouw en voorzien van een eigen entree. De kamers waren zeer groot, sfeervol, schoon en fris. We hadden grote bedden met comfortabele matrassen en fijne kussens. Op de kamer was een zgn. honesty bar aanwezig: een koelkast met diverse dranken en een rekje met chips en snoep waar van kon pakken. Aan het eind van je verblijf vertel je wat je hebt gebruikt en reken je dit af. Een assortiment thee en koffie, een fles water en koekjes waren gratis. We hadden verschillende maten handdoeken, hard genoeg om goed te drogen, zacht genoeg om niet te schuren. Ontbijt was zeer goed: volop keuze aan warme gerechten op bestelling en een zelfbedieningsbuffet met o.a. fruit en cereals. Vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. En wat ook fijn is: een grote zitkamer in het hotelgebouw. Toen wij er waren was het bloedheet (grote ventilator op de kamer was wel fijn). Ook als het had getegend, was dit een mooie plek geweest voor een langer verblijf. Sfeervol hotel in een leuk stadje in een zeer mooie omgeving.

Cons:

Kwestie van smaak, maar voor ons liever geen radio bij het ontbijt.
