  • Hi there,
    think you need to check this one out a bit more as even though the Teletext say it is AI, further on it says prices are based on B&B.
    Reviews on TripAdvisor only mention Breakfast and speak about paying quite expensive prices for all other meals and drinks.
    I do not think this is an AI hotel.
