Really good Stay, A Grateful Guest's Experience

warm roomsspacious roomspower showerfresh pastries
The swimming pool was large with a baby pool. Robes and towels were plentiful. Breakfast had a HUGE variety with tasty porridge and fresh pastries. Throughout my stay, the staff provided wonderful service. I found the rooms warm, spacious and very cosy. The shower was a power shower, delivering hot water, and quality shampoo was included.
I noticed some channels on the tv did not work. It was a minor inconvenience but worth mentioning for full transparency.
