i found my double room to be spacious and clean with really nice decor. the bed was very comfortable, and i slept soundly each night. the staff were always courteous and friendly, especially the barman, who was helpful and pleasant. the self-service breakfast had a great variety, i think everyone found something they liked!
the shower had no pressure, a little disappointing.
