The family room was a good size, with soft toys for the kids. Beds were all really comfortable. A door on the bathroom or shower would make it a bit safer and easier to keep little ones out / from wandering into the shower while it’s running fully clothed XD

Parking
Everything was good but I had driven 7 hours from Hamburg and arrived late in the evening and there was no where to park. I had to put the car against the wall near the lifts in the underground car park, hoping I hadn’t blocked anyone in
