Leider hat sich die Qualität verschlechtert.
Toilette abgebrochen, im Ersatzzimmer roch das Badezimmer nach Frittierfett (?)... Beim Frühstück konnten wir selbst miterleben, daß ein Gast angeschnauzt wurde, weil er darum gebeten hatte, de Frühstückstisch abzuputzen (?).

The kitchenette was poorly serviced. There was no cooker provided to make light and simple meals that guests may wish to make. There was no weighing scale for use of guests. The staff were friendly and helpful though.
