+ Room was clean and very well presented. Nothing really bad to say about it.
− Heaters on the hallway are literally full of dust. Maybe worth to check those. And most important, please allow restaurant staff to add tips .. no one walks with cash anymore in 2026.. They are doing a great job there.

+ We stay here usually once a year and absolutely love the place. The atmosphere is very relaxing and welcoming from when you check in, the bar area and the evening meal in Horizons restaurant. We particularly enjoy breakfast. The staff are courteous, very professional and the quality of the breakfast items is exceptional. (How people in previous comments find the staff rude I just don't understand.) We will keep coming back.
− Loved everything!
