Gestank im Zimmer!

Wir hatten ein schönes Zimmer, allerdings hat es im Bad so bestialisch nach Urin aus der Dusche gestunken! Wir hatten darauf aufmerksam gemacht und es wurde nach dem Besuch des Hausmeisters, auch besser, kam aber am letzten Tag von unserem Aufenthalt wieder. Sehr schade! ☹️ Am Abreisetag hieß es dann wir hätten ein anderes Zimmer bekommen können, hat man uns aber leider zuvor nicht angeboten. Im Zimmer war es leider auch extrem stickig obwohl wir ständig gelüftet hatten, kein Schlaf möglich! Wir können das Hotel leider so nicht weiter empfehlen!

Insgesamt gut.

War alles ok, leider funktionieren die Ladestationen am Haus nicht. Die ein oder andere Kellnerin im Restaurant dürften gern etwas freundlicher sein und nicht erst wenn der Chef sie zu Kunden schickt. Das war etwas schade.

Nyt, men meget dejligt hotel

Meget dejligt hotel med mange fine detaljer og god atmosfære. Bærer lidt præg af at være splinternyt, da der manglede flere småting, men alt i alt et superdejligt ophold. Fin beliggenhed ift. wellness/spacenter og cykelture langs kysten.
