Reviewed Aug 14, 2026Lovely clean hotel. Quirky. Really enjoyed our stay, me and the teen. The food is awful, gloopy gravy for me, worse for my vegetarian daughter... food inedible. Very slow service. But the staff are lovely as was the atmosphere. Go figure! We loved our stay in a beautiful clean room, hated the food, loved the warm welcome, detested that my son really struggled to get up to the entrance in his wheelchair, loved the drink prices.... The contrasts were massive.

Personeel was erg onwennig en sommigen erg onervaren. Ook was er vermoedelijk sprake van een tekort, waardoor het ontbijt bijvoorbeeld wat traag werd aangevuld. Ook was men, ondanks van tevoren te hebben overlegd, niet erg soepel met de inchecktijd. Dat maakt de prijs van 1 overnachting met ontbijt iets aan de hoge kant.
