Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Modern, good location, good breakfast
Negative: Room too hot - tried to use air conditioning but it was set to winter/heat mode. They said open the window but we couldn’t because of very loud music from cycle event! It costs €15 extra to use the pool plus extra for a cap & flip flops - crazy! We’ve already paid top price for the hotel…why charge us extra😡
Summary: Nice place…could be so much better for the price
