    • Review: "I had the impression that FLETCHER Hotels stood for "COMFORT" but if this is what they describe as "comfort", I'll certainly would never stay at any of this hotel group's properties again. The rooms are small and very sparsely furnished and the lighting is so minimal that it is laughable. Did Pinochhio design this for a group of toddlers? One wonders! The only "desk" was a round table with a diameter slightly larger than a bar stool and two small chairs. There is no way that a couple can spend...

    • Review: "We had a pleasant stay. The room was clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the dinners were very good. Breakfast was good, although a wider selection of food would have been appreciated. The area was quiet and peaceful, which made for a relaxing stay. We did not visit any nearby shops, so we cannot comment on them. The double bed was actually made up of two single beds pushed together, but they were comfortable and we slept well. One night, the rear wiper on our car was ripped off...
