Tror de gerne vil give indtryk af mere end de kan tilbyde Vi havde bestilt værelse med udsigt til haven, men fik et med udsigt til parkeringspladsen Selv om der kun var få gæster kunne vi kun blive tilbudt et andet værelse med udsigt til en bygning i spa området Jeg var ikke helt tilfreds når man har betalt 4000 kr for 2 nætter Men værelset i sig selv var rigtig godt. Morgenmaden var ikke noget specielt, der har vi oplevet bedre på andre billigere hoteller. Spa området er et must når man er der, og hovedårsagen til vort ophold. Vi overnatter typisk på hotel 30-40 gange årligt, så der er et sammenlignings grundlag
