nice roomattentive staffvery good foodflat sofauneven surfaceloud music

my room was nice and clean. i appreciated its feel at home. the bathroom was beautiful and i really enjoyed using the freestanding bath. the staff in the restaurant were attentive and i liked the very good food.

the hotel gave our son a flat sofa as a bed. it was hard and uneven i think. it was short and his feet hung out the end. the loud music went on until 11.30 while the kitchen was cleaned down.
