Super spacious with many beds! Clean and under good management. Got a lovey balcony with a great view, even though it's on ground level. Location is not in the most centre area. But it's totally fine if you have a car.

We stayed at "Family Suite" and it was very comfortable! There were one big bed and one bank bed which our child loved. Kitchen was well-equipped and bathroom was clean, plenty of room available inside. For laundry, we used the one available in the facility (coin laundry). The camp site was full and there were several families so that children could play together. I appreciated that all waste is well sorted (compost is well marked, clear explanation of what can go into recycle bin).
