For travelers prioritizing leisure, the on-site health club with its sauna and indoor pool are definite assets. However, reports of inconsistent service and issues around check-in suggest that travelers should confirm all arrangements in advance to ensure a smooth stay.”

Solid Hotel Experience

quick check-infriendly staffspacious roomlimited choices

My check-in was quick , and the staff was helpful. I had a pleasant surprise to find a spacious and clean twin room. The bathroom was also spacious and very clean with both a bath and a shower.

The dining choices near the hotel were somewhat limited , which required a bit more planning for meals.

The walls are paper thin. It was very noisy. the bed was hard. there was no soap in the shower dispenser. That was not ideal. the internet signal was terrible. It was impossible to work.

smooth check-infree parkinggluten-free puddinghumming noise

The check in went smoothly. My room included both a double bed and a single bed. I found the room clean. The hotel offers free parking. Staff remembered my gluten free needs and prepared a nice pudding. Breakfast included a gluten-free bread and sausages.

The room looked a bit worn. I noticed some kind of machine running outside all night. It made a humming noise. I did find this noise a little disturbing.

we booked the hotel last minute. we asked for a twin room and received a family room for the same reasonable price. the chef cooked what we wanted at breakfast. he is a great character and ambassador for the hotel.

the heating was on constantly. it was easily mid 20's in the room. the radiator thermostat did not work, so i could not turn it off.

The chef, david, shone. He accommodated my son's peanut allergy with such care! he ensured the salad was walnut-free and even prepared special kid-friendly options. the food tasted lovely with many choices. I enjoyed the leek and potato soup.

The apple juice machine dispensed only water during breakfast. This felt a little bit disappointing.
