Good to know
Check-in is from 15:00 to 23:30, but you must tell them your arrival time beforehand; if your flight is delayed, write to the property so they know. Check-out is from 07:30 to 11:00, so you can have breakfast without rushing on your last day. It is on a first floor; the address indicates there is a lift, which is handy if you have a large suitcase.
