Helt ok, lite slitet med tråkiga heltäckningsmattor överallt. För många krukblommor av plast, trevligare färre men levande. Under all kritik dubbelsängen som gungade varenda gång när någon vände på sig.

Mycket bra! Fint rum med skön säng. Fint och rent badrum. Mycket bra frukostbuffé. Lite trångt garage kanske eller så är bilen för stor.
