Pros:

Comfort of the rooms.

Cons:

Small bathroom. It was missing basic toiletries like shampoo and body wash, and there was a bit of a morning odor issue.
The room is subject to external noise from both passing traffic and late-night revelers.
Limited parking slots near the hotel.

Pleasant stay in Banská Štiavnica
Pros:

The property was clean, spacious, stuff was nice and food completely sufficient.

Cons:

There is no really parking at the property, so one needs to pay additional money for parking and keep the car a bit farther from the property.

Historicka čista budova, prijemny personal
Pros:

Mila a priatelska recepcna, cistota vsade, boli sme spokojní, dobré raňajky, krásne prostredie

Cons:

Zlé možnosti parkovania.ale s tym treba počítať kedže ste v centre. Ale mali sme možnosť parkovať cca 500m od hotela, nevadilo nám to.

Pros:

A 19. századi Besztercebányához illeszkedő szállás, archaizáló, de kényelmes belsővel. A reggeli kiadós volt, és ízletes. A személyzet barátságos és kedves volt. Legközelebb is őket választjuk.

Cons:

Parkolást megoldottuk, de ha teltház lett volna, akkor bajban lettünk volna a kicsi udvarban.

Nice and clean in the middle of the city
Pros:

It's in the city center, so everything is close.
The parking was around 400 meters from the building, and the price was included.

Cons:

The recepcionist forgot to give me the door code, so I had to call her up after the reception was closed.
She was very annoyed and said that she gave me the code.
This was a little angering because it wasn't true, she didn't even mention the fact that I had the use a code after 17:00.

It's okay the forget something, everybody who works makes mistakes but at least don't be annoyed if someone asks something you forgot to mention.

Cons:

Mala som pripravené šálky aj čaj, ale nenašla som rýchlovarnú kanvicu. Ale tú by mi podľa mňa dali, kebyže si ju vypýtam na recepcii.
