Det var de små ting der manglede - toiletpapir, kaffe i reception var tom, vasken var stoppet og der manglede farin til Irish coffee 😊

Ok ophold
Dejligt hotel med en skøn beliggenhed.
Desværre var de folk vi snakkede med i receptionen ikke særlige venlige og meget lidt hjælpsomme.

Opholdet var fint. God beliggenhed. Vi boede på - 1 og der var kun adgang med elevator som rengøringspersonalet også brugte - så om morgenen stod man og ventede på at komme til morgenmad
