"Clean and tidy hotel with proximity to the town and restaurants. Modern and new facilities. I should correct my previous comments, the hotel does provide connection from mobile phone to TV by GoogleCast providing necessary access to your own YouTube and streaming (the hotel provides only regular local TV channels)."
