äänieristys nolla.

Kaikki, siis kaikki, äänet naapurihuoneesta kuuluivat kuin olisimme olleet samassa huoneessa. Olisimme voineen käydä keskustelun normaaliäänellä naapurihuoneen majoittujien kanssa. Tiesimme mitä aikoivat tehdä, minne mennä jne. Onneksi oli lapsiperhe, niin yöllä oli vain ”vieressä kuorsaava mies”.

Kahden yön yöpyminen

Henkilökunta sekä respassa että ravintoloissa oli ystävällistä ja avuliasta. Ongelmallista että hotelli on kahdessa rakennuksessa. Tuli paljon juoksemista rakennusten välillä matkatavaroiden kanssa ennenkuin hotellihuoneen paikka hahmottui. Näkyi myös muita matkustajia, jotka etsivät huonettaan sekä aamiaisravintolaa. Sokkeloisuus siis on ongelma, muuten viihdyimme hyvin.
