fantastic staffshower problemextra charge
the staff was fantastic and the rooms were modern.
I couldn't get the shower to work properly. There were no instructions available. a light bulb near the desk was also not working. i found it annoying that a hot chocolate at breakfast cost extra, especially after spending a lot of money on the room and dinner.
