Let's start with the location: the place itself is located a bit far from the main streets and activities, but the place is calm, relaxing and peaceful. You'll need to have a car or bike to easily move or rely on the tricks passing by to move you around. The staff is really great and helpful, very friendly and fun, always happy to help. The food on site is ok, lacks a bit of European options and sweets. Prices are reasonable but more on the high side than budget friendly. The room (king size) is wide and very clean. But it clearly lacks maintenance. The foams and not mattresses (because it's literally just a foam with no cover) are not very thick and not very young either. The accessories (remotes, fridge) are broken (but working) and not renewed... This doesn't give a good image. The fridge is very noisy and handle was broken. The bathroom water heater worked well although the digital display was not working properly, there was a water leak under the sink (staff was advised). During one evening we heard creatures running and squeaking in the ceiling (most likely rats) staff was advised... Note that the hotel is literally a huge garden so no surprise. But such place in such location needs to have recurrent pest control treatment. They have a very nice swimming pool but the chlorine level is just out of control! We all had our face skin burning after a few minutes in there. The maintenance guy puts chlorine every evening and doesn't even test the PH level of the water which should be done daily too. However this place is nice, I would recommend it, but there's some improvements to be done mainly in the pool and maintenance of the installations. PS: I read a comment about doga being kept in abnormal conditions... Well I witnessed it too. 1 husky leashed to a pole the whole day... And another one treated the same. To have seen the owner's behavior with the customers (no hello if you don't say hi.

Helpful staff and good mood.

Really bad internet. And location not optimal compared to the center unless you don't need to leave the hotel often.

Minor maintenance backlog, some grout at the pool is crumbly and sharp. Door was jammed and creaky, toilet paper holder broken.

Very poor service in the restaurant- we sat there for ages and in the end I had to walk to reception to ask if anyone could take our order. Then the same again when we wanted another drink
