Breakfast

Nightclub noise until 4am every morning. Paying for spa facilities which would be included in any other hotel

The rooms, bathrooms, general hotel facilities and location were all great. The staff were very friendly, especially the two bar staff. The breakfasts weren't as good as we had hoped, but it didn't really matter. Very nice coffees but the croissants were very stale and they ran out of a lot of the cereals by the end of our stay - only a choice of two and no muesli or raisins left.

The breakfasts weren't as good as we'd hoped, but other than that everything was great.

Location and lounge/bar area was good

Spa is very bad, especially for 25€ extra. The balcony had no furniture at all, it’s just an empty balcony. There’s a nightclub in the same building as the hotel that closes at 4 and the hotel has extremely poor sound isolation. This of course also meant you could hear everything your neighbors said.

The breakfast was OK. The scrambled eggs were watery and not very hot. Plenty of choice of pastries. The bedroom was large with an excellent view. The beds were extremely firm for my taste. The staff were generally helpful apart from the lady looking after the seating in the dining room. She made me feel as if I was back in the RAF being told off by the sergeant major

The buffet dinner was beyond awful. By 8 p.m. it had almost run out of hot food (i.e two chicken legs) apart from heavy pasta and sausages floating in some kind of grease.
