Good stay

Ok stay for a couple nights. Comfy beds and spacious clean rooms. Indoor parking and generous breakfast options. The hotel had renovations in the restaurant during our stay but that was not a big inconvenience. Overall a good stay, nothing bad but nothing special either.

Staff spoke excellent English. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Room was a pain to access with the card as it seemed to be very temperamental. Parking was fine, as a larger van we had to park in the outdoor car park, but our room key opened gate. Pool was nice if not a little cold.
