"Rundum Wohlfühlen zu tollem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis"

10.0

Schöne Zimmer, interessantes Layout. Es wurde mitgedacht, dass es abends frisch werden könnte (Bademäntel, Wärmflaschen, Heizdecke, …). Aber der Service war absolut fantastisch. Und das Essen hat ebenfalls fantastisch geschmeckt (man ist sogar auf unsre individuellen Unverträglichkeiten eingegangen - in einem Ausmaß, wie ich es noch nicht erlebt habt, ganz großes Danke dafür!)

Es gab nichts auszusetzen. Bringt in den kalten Monaten eigene Flipflops mit, da der Boden recht kühl ist.

"Gute Basis wenn man in den Addo will."

Manager war präsent und außerordentlich nett.

Autobahn war nachts deutlich zu hören. Springbrunnen im Hof - unnötiger Lärm. Nachtmahl war auf der teureren Seite.
