Für eine Übernachtung zur Durchfahrt super geeignet. Zimmer etwas verwohnt. Badezimmer könnte mal renoviert werden. (Schimmelflecken Silikonfugen) Lobenswert und das Beste am Hotel ist das Restaurant (abends) und die Freundlichkeit vom Mitarbeiter, der die Gäste zum Platz begleitet (auch zu den Kindern). Insgesamt sehr Familienfreundlich und Hundefreundlich. Frühstück okay, leider etwas abgestanden zum Ende des Frühstückszeitraums (Käse, Wurst)

Rigtig fin morgenmad. Værelset lå i den gamle del af hotellet og bærer præg af at det er af ældre dato. Værelset var ubehageligt varmt at komme ind i (26 gr) så de første 3 timer blev brugt på at lufte ud. Meget venligt personale.
