i attended a conference with 40 people in october. we booked nearly all the rooms for one night including dinner and breakfast. attendees liked the venue and the area around the hotel. the meals provided a good variety of options, also considering allergies. the food and drinks tasted really nice.

i stayed for three nights. the double door cupboard had a top shelf and a hanging rail but lacked other shelves for clothes. the one mirror was fixed too low, so i had to bend down to see my face.
