Pros +
- Nothing
- The restaurant is nice. Good food. Good service.
- The service and location
Cons -
- Too many steps up to entrance. Have a lift but ONLY for handicapped not for luggage Haul the luggage up steep steps Floor in front of bathroom mushy, the fake wood is not even so yan catch your foot or toe Bottled water/coffee is room is way over priced
- The room is plain. The hotel does not leave a single bottle of water at the room. I was charged 4 euros for a bottle, all right, but I had to request it.
- Not pleased with the bathroom. Every time we took showers the floor got wet. I wanted a room with a Tub but got a handicap equipped bathroom which would've been fine if the entire bathroom floor didn't get wet after every shower, this was disappointing.

Spacious room. Good location. Decent free internet. Decent breakfast.
Very average hotel for the price. Despite a spacious room, it looked directly onto an adjacent building and included only the most basic of amenities. Tiny gym.
