Fint läge

Tycker det var bra, god frukost med mycket att välja på. Fin uteplats. Rummet var rent o fint. Det jag saknade var en plattare kudde, gillar inte att ha högt under huvudet när jag ska sova. Lite lyhört ( smälldes i dörrar).

Guldställe

Mycket trevlig personal! Rakt av! Väldigt bra frukost och restaurangen levererade även kvällstid. Sköna sängar. Men avsaknaden av aircondition blev tydlig när det var 30 grader i skuggan. Mycket varmt på rummet. Vore det möjligt att sätta kortläsare på dörrarna längst bort från receptionen så skulle det förenkla väldigt mycket. Vi hade en del tung packning som vi var tvungna att ha med på dagarna och vi hade rum längst bort från receptionen. Men vistelsen var kanon! Kommer definitivt välja detta hotell igen. Detta mycket tack vare den fantastiska personalen.
