Quality hotel in a country...

Liked: Free use of Leisure facilities Incredible ‘hidden’ Sauna areaVery good evening menu, although a little pricey!
Disliked: Scrambled eggs were of the powdered variety, not good…..We’re unable to provide an invoice (even though he paid for his own room!) in my German colleagues name/business, as the room was booked through myself on booking.com.
