ambiance and location

The property was really pretty and made for nice photos; you can roam around and practically take a shot wherever you go. It’s far enough from the main city proper, so it’s quiet at night. The bed is comfortable and the room is quite big. When you’ve checked out and still want to roam around, you can leave your luggage at reception. Good food also from the adjacent resto.

It’s kinda dark in the room at night, and there was only one floor lamp. The room and the bathroom also wasn’t cleaned daily (maybe you need to ask them; we didn’t know), so our trash ended up quite full after our stay.

I only stayed here for one night because it is close to the airport. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. The air conditioning was set extremely cold, almost like a refrigerator and I couldn’t adjust it to a warmer temperature. Because of this, the room was uncomfortably cold throughout the night. On top of that, the building is very noisy. I could clearly hear people walking on the floor above, and it was quite disturbing. I also had a roommate who made a lot of noise very early in the morning while packing. There are supposed to be quiet hours, but these were not respected. I think it’s important that staff clearly emphasize the quiet hours during check-in to avoid this kind of situation. Additionally, the bedding was inadequate. The blanket was extremely thin, more like a sheet and provided no warmth at all. Even wearing my sweater wasn’t enough to stay warm. Overall, I had a very cold and unpleasant night.
