Yöpyminen tammikuussa 2025

Hotellin kunto ja palvelut ovat rapistuneet. Aamiainen on vaatimaton ja monipuolisuus supistunut. Erikoisruokavaliot ovat kuitenkin hyvin esille ja ne ovat riittävän monipuoliset.

Hyvä kokemus. Meillä oli koira mukana, häntä muistettiin herkkutikulla. Aamupala oli hyvä. Hotelli keskeisellä sijainnilla.
