really good dining and restful stay

spacious roomcomfortable bedmissing bulb
my room was spacious and provided everything i needed. the bed was comfortable, allowing me a good night's sleep! the bathroom had an excellent shower along with beautiful towels and toiletries.
One bedside table lamp lacked a bulb. there was insufficient milk provided for hot drinks. the cold buffet at breakfast was limited, and i think some fruit would have been nice.

the hotel is right on a very busy main road, that is true. the front door of the restaurant and bar opens directly onto the road. noise was not too bad in the bedroom, however.
