Comfy & warm... little too warm!
As usual, nice hotel, good rooms, good breakfast and all fine, except this time the room was like an oven and the property had switched off the ability to cool the room, so even at 16 degrees setting it was pumping out heat. Could not leave the window open due to train noise and had an uncomfortable sweaty night.

Average hotel nothing special
The service was rather poor, we wasnt welcomed in nothing explained to us, had no idea how to use the key for the swimming pool, found the hotel not value for money, the cleaning staff were friendly and helpful unsure of his name, however didnt seem very well run, shame the sauna was closed also that was never mentioned before or even on our visit, wouldnt say its very good for children, no nice touches

A good hotel that needs some money spent on room refreshes; furnishings and surfaces are all scratched, tired and worn out. Breakfast was also lovely but hardly anything available (no eggs, fruits, beans or mushrooms) - this was sad given it was a Saturday and it was busy but lots of empty tables. .
