I would rate this hotel as a 2 and a half-star property. Facilities and guest amenities are definitely not 4-star. Not good value for money at €270 a night. Staff members are courteous and helpful. The breakfast buffet is good, plenty to choose from. But the breakfast room is utilitarian.

Not impressed considering the price paid

Hallway leading to our room was very dark. Bathroom shower doors had a huge gap 1/2 inch in the door causing the floor to flood. Bathtub would not drain properly. Not the cleanest bathroom. Charged for items in the minibar which we did not use. Some staff not helpful and had absolutely no personality.
