Good stay in convenient location

We had a good stay, the pool area was a bonus and the staff were great. The meals were good quality and breakfast plentiful. The beds were very soft and didn't suit us and rooms a little dated and tired. Overall a nice pleasant stay in the right location for a stop before continuing our journey.

Lite nedgånget men OK

Hotellet bokar alla rutor för att vara OK. Det gör inte så mycket att mattan i badrummet är från 1990 eller att byggnaden i allmänhet är lite sliten. Så sammanfattningsvis skulle jag säga att det är ett OK motorvägshotell som håller vad det lovar men du kommer inte bli någon exceptionell upplevelse.

Kanonbra för hundägare

I det stora hela så var det bra, vi hade hundar med oss och blev väldigt väl mottagna. Men rummet låg precis över poolen och många högljudda barn väsnades långt efter stängning 21.00. Rummet var väldigt varmt trots ett gott försök med en fläkt. Borde börja med AC på rummen som det är utomlands.
