Very happy
All very clean, spacious and comfortable.
It was also a kind thought to put an electric heater on and to find a small milk in the fridge.

Great stopover location!
Clean and convenient place to stay with all the amenities. Couldn't be happier with the place. Also...easiest check in and check out ever! Found the key in the door and left the key in the door. Doesn't get easier than that!
