We received a WhatsApp 2 days before we were due to arrive to say that the hotel was closed and they had moved us to a different hotel which was not ideal
Sehr sauber, perfekte Anweisungen und ein ausgezeichneter Kontakt.
Die Lage ist fantastisch, mit einem wunderschönen Blick auf den Kanal.
Einfach, aber völlig ausreichend und dem Preis entsprechend.
Kann ich nur empfehlen.
