Having a full size fridge, a sink, cutlery and crockery in the room is really good. The combination of hotel and semi self catering works so well.

Pleasant and quiet, lovely staff in restaurant and front desk. Spacious room (the deluxe). Comfortable bed and great shower. Cons: Not enough reading light for reading in bed (every hotel room everywhere). Other guests walk right by the big glass door. The included continental breakfast was very ordinary.
