Pros:

L'emplacement

Cons:

Serveur au bar incompétent, se trompe, ne connaît pas la carte, oublie des choses
Vétusté de l'hôtel, piscine de la thalasso non opérationnelle (on peut juste nager) ce qui n'est pas acceptable dans un hôtel thalasso

j'avais malheureusemet choisi cet hotel pour la thalassothérapies, le reste est très bien.
Pros:

une vue magnifique depuis la chambre. un service de chambre parfait.

Cons:

certains services de thalassothérapie étaient fermés sans avoir été annoncés comme tels au préalable (piscine extérieur,, hammam, jetset fontaine, et couloir a contre courant). Les structures sont vieillissantes mais satisfaisantes ormi une eau dosée bien trop fortement en sel!!!!

Behaglig
Pros:

Läget Thalasso poolen, poolområdet utomhus. Utsikten över havet. Sköna sängar.

Cons:

Hotellet är slitet. Stor balkong men smutsig och möblerad med två trista stolar.
Kunde finnas mer och fräschare frukt o grönt vid frukosten.

wunderbarer Kurzaufenthalt in bester Strandlage, Pool, Sauna, Hammam, alles inklusive
Pros:

ich bekam ein Zimmer upgrade, das Zimmer war sehr groß und geräumig, im Badezimmer viel Platz auch zum Abstellen, das Bett war fantastisch
das Meeresrauschen nachts bei geöffneter Terrassentür war genial
das Frühstück, zum Teil Buffet, bestimmte Speisen wurden serviert, war exzellent
das Personal bemüht und zuvorkommend

Cons:

das Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen und bedarf einer Sanierung, aber das war mir ja bei Buchung bekannt
sonst war alles total in Ordnung
