Goed, vriendelijk en flexibel personeel. Door een harde stortbui was er wateroverlast ontstaan in restaurant en keuken. Werd heel goed opgelost.

Aangenaam hotel
Aangenaam hotel met mooie rustige kamers. Alleen volgende min puntjes: Ontbijtbuffet en diner was lekker alleen liep er bij beide iets fout. Daardoor moesten we te lang wachten. Ontbijtbuffet werd niet voldoende en te laat aangevuld. De receptioniste was koel en weinig behulpzaam.
