"Perfect overnight stop off on route to Luxembourg. Lots of fast food options for food within walking distance. Room itself was clean, comfortable the breakfast was also very nice with great choice. Only loosing 1 star because of the external approach to the building due to an abandoned restaurant next door and large amounts of fly too rubbish about. This did not affect our stay but could be off putting to customers."
