They charge for parking. I think it has to come with the hotel stay, that's the only bad thing.

“Good but a little bit outdated”
The staff is super nice. I bought the breakfast directly with booking and when arrived they said that booking charge you only for the adults and no kids so we had to pay extra for the kids breakfast.

we are really enjoyed staying at this hotel... Lots of interesting things, large beautiful well-kept territory, there is something to do for people of different ages. I want to note the good breakfasts and wonderful evenings with live music. When we arrived, we were met by the administrator Jackie... She introduced us to the hotel, explaining and telling us everything in detail. A wonderful person and a competent specialist! You definitely want to come back to such people and such places! 😇
