The staff is really very friendly. The hotel is rather simple but I like that. It is clean and quiet there. The food is highly recommended. There was also a great breakfast buffet. It's worth a trip.

We were in the restaurant!!! I can't say anything about the rooms...The restaurant:Rustic, cozy...in the middle of a residential area somewhere. There is a small terrace and a few parking spaces...The food was really, really good. I think the boss cooks herself and does it divinely. Portions were large, everything was fresh and tasty. There's really nothing wrong with it.The toilets are clean and tidy...4 available at least for ladies.

The rooms are clean and the people are friendly. The food in the restaurant is very tasty, especially the salad. I haven't had a freshly made salad like this in ages. …

Very nice restaurant with great food and very good service. Unfortunately it's very hidden and you wouldn't just find it. Has very good recommendations. Definitely worth a visit.
