Preis Leistung in Ordnung aber nicht nochmal
Pros:

Preis Leistung hat gestimmt, zudem war das Frühstück mit inbegriffen und die Lage war gut. Fahrradkeller und Parkplatz sind positiv hervorzuheben.

Cons:

Alles andere.
Hotelier immer grimmig am schauen und hat mich gefühlt schlechter behandelt als alle anderen, vielleicht weil ich jünger als die meisten Gäste gewesen bin. Auf jeden Frage kam die Frage wozu ich es benötige. (Trentino Karte)

Zimmer sehr hellhörig und nicht schön eingerichtet. Klimaanlage defekt, nach ein paar Tagen gefroren im Zimmer.
Bett sehr klein und keine Ausstattung im Zimmer.

Wenn man hier sein Hotel bucht, sollte man eingestellt sein, die meiste Zeit draußen zu verbringen und nur zum Schlafen da zu sein.
Werde ich leider nicht nochmal besuchen wollen.

Pros:

Die Damen an der Rezeption, Frühstücksraum und die Putzfrauen waren sehr nett. 👍👍👍👍👍
.

Cons:

Es wurde den Bewerbungen geschrieben das das Frühstück sehr gut sei. Naja es gab jeden Tag das gleiche. Bisschen mehr Abwechslung wäre schön gewesen.
Ach ja, die Betten waren schlecht, die Matratzen waren abgelegen. Wir waren schief gelegen im Bett, uns hat der Rücken weh getan.
