Toll wenn …
Matratze hart. Bettinhalt billig und nur aus Kunstfasern. Sehr unangenehm zum Schlafen. Kopfkissen dick und ebenfalls mit unangenehmer Kunstfaser gefüllt. Sehr schade. Konnte nicht schlafen darin. Kaffe gratis jedoch ohne Kafferahm :-(
Sonst waere es top

TOP Hotel
Wir wurden vom ersten Moment unserer Ankunft überaus freundlich und zuvorkommend empfangen und fühlten uns sofort, als wären wir Stammgäste. Sowohl das Entree als auch das Zimmer übertraf unsere Erwartungen. Das Hotel hätte einen Stern mehr durchaus verdient.
Lediglich der Kellner im Restaurant schien einen schlechten Tag gehabt zu haben, er kümmerte sich um die Reinigung der Tische und das Polieren der Gläser mehr als um das Wohl seiner Gäste.
