Everything was very good, staff was very friendly & helpful. Location was very good for out of town adventures and in town walks, shopping and meals.

Rex

United States of America

The room, the staff and the food were all excellent (we had dinner in the restaurant as well as breakfast). The location (in the middle of town) was very good, with other restaurants and bars close by. The town itself was very quiet, but maybe that was due to summer holidays?

Disappointing
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
The room was very small, no floor heating in the bathroom. Poor soundproofing, could hear people talking in the next room. It was very cold in the room, trying to set air conditioning to higher temperatures with the help of guide provided by the hotel didn’t do the trick. While mentioning this to the front desk in the morning we were told that air conditioner doesn’t preheat air at all, it blows only cold air in the room. Instructions in the room were faulty then but no apologies followed. Front desk staff wasn’t friendly whatsoever during any of our interactions. Overall very disappointing, definitely not a promised 5-star experience, would not recommend.
Breakfast was nice and plentiful, free parking.

Quite limited parking (luckily managed to get the last free space) Balcony fairly large but furnishing quite bleak and modest (3 basic chairs and a large ashtray, unfortunately we are not smokers), totally opposite to the interior of the room.
Nice breakfast, handy location, room (Magic Double) quite spacious and nicely decorated, air-conditioning was working well even if it was quite hot outside
