"Hotellet er nyopført. Dog synes vi det er en kæmpe fejl at man deler altan med naboen. Det bør man adskille. Der er ikke restaurant på stedet endnu. Der er ikke selvstændig parkering. Og morgenmaden lod vente på sig 30 minutter. Vi krydsede af på sedler hvad vi ønskede til morgenmad.

Kan varmt anbefale stedet til andre. Det der får...
