Liked: The place is well kept, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the location is excellent. We were there in winter, and the nights were cold. We had an individual heater in the room, which worked well. The showers were very clean and the water nicely hot.

Disliked: The room was cold when we came back in the evening. The heater was efficient to keep the room warm during the night, but it took a while to get it to a comfortable level. It also was cold in the sanitaries.
