Sufficient for a one night stay

Very convenient location, could walk to the airport. Dinner included, although we went out. They packed us a breakfast for the next day and booked us a taxi with a child seat to our friend's house. There were no options to buy food (apart from chips and lollies) outside of the dinner e.g earlier when we got there. The room was tiny and super hard to fit a cot inside and still be able to move around. There is no lift. The spas and sauna were not on.

Very small rooms, no usefull amenites ( a candle but no shampoo). Room had a nice view. No ventalation, large window for air, however mid-summer 24 hr light leaves the choice of no dsrkness or swelter. Hotel is clean and well maintained but fails on actually getting sleep. For me this is why I stayed here - to sleep.

Cosy and friendly and close to the airport.

Spent a pleasant two nights here. Immaculately clean with modern comfortable rooms. Small and friendly with a relaxed atmosphere. Provide free transfer to the airport. Despite proximity to airport the rooms were very quiet and it's has lovely views at the back across a lake. Breakfast and dinner buffet plentiful and very fresh. I would happily stay here again, not grand luxury but a lovely home from home.
