We were in the old part of the hotel,The rooms are attractive with a modern touch but very small and everything is a bit cramped.

Modernly furnished room, but without flair.There is a small pool between the buildings and sometimes directly in front of the room windows. Overall, this hotel is more reminiscent of a modern motel.Recommended for an overnight stay or for business trips.Unfortunately the restaurant was closed that day.

Very nice, cozy rooms. The breakfast buffet was fine like in any other hotel, but the service was very nice and accommodating. Parking spaces can get tight. I would book it again.

We had to make a stopover on our return journey due to the very bad weather and therefore the increasing travel time. Booked this hotel quite late in the evening. Staff is super friendly, very nice welcome, good parking, very nice room. Everything has been thought of. Had a delicious breakfast this morning and continued. It was a relief to have made the stop here. Nothing but praise.
