a wonderful stay!

generous spacequiet roomfriendly servicefruit substitution
The verdana room provided generous space and quiet. i found breakfast cooked to order, and the menu presented many choices. the restaurant impressed me with its lively atmosphere and friendly service. The food was fantastic. i appreciated the camembert parcel and the chicken schnitzel.
i thought the lemon dessert was good but my partner felt let down. her creme brûlée was listed with strawberries, yet raspberries came instead. she dislikes raspberries, so the substitution disappointed her.
