Aš dar sugrįšiu
Pros:

Kadangi nevairuoju ir ne esu turtingas 😉 ,
tai Patiko tai kad autobusų stotelės visai šalia,o ir taxi labai lengvai randa šitą viešbutį. Darbuotojai paslaugūs, mandagūs ir netgi galėčiau pasakyti kad yra labai draugiški. Čia rasite ramybę ir poilsį aš tuo jau įsitikinęs ir patenkintas. Bei rekomenduoju jums nes kainos ir kokybės santykis gana geras. Tik nesigėdinkite prašyti ar klausti darbuotojų jai ko nors trūksta. Jie su malonumu jums padės .

Cons:

Nepatiko oras lauke 😔, nes vėjas ir lietus.
Bet viešbučio darbuotojai už tai neatsako 😉🤠.
NAKTINĖS LEMPUTĖS NEBUVO MANO NUMERIUOSE PER VISUS KARTUS. 🤷🏻

Nebūtų geriau būtų geriausia 😉
Pros:

Lankausi čia jau nebe pirmą kartą ir kainos bei kokybės santykis atitinka lūkesčius. Personalas draugiškas ir paslaugus gal baldai šiek tiek seni bet svarbiausia švaru, tylu ir ramu.
P.S. čia gerai miegasi 😎🤞🏻

Cons:

Turiu sveikatos problemų. Su kraujotaka todėl man šalta 🤷🏻😡 jai nejudu.
. Bet ir vėl malonus ir draugiškas darbuotojas davė man mažą šildymo daiktą. Dabar jau nan šilta 😉👍🏻

Ramybės kampelis
Pros:

Atokiau nuo pagrindinių gatvių todėl idealiai tinka poilsiui. Tyku ir ramu. Gan jaukus vidinis kiemas vieta tinkama savaitgalio kepiniams 👍🏻😄. Pabrėžtina kad labai rami vieta tinkama savaitgalio poilsiui as norintiems tiesiog pasislėpti 😉👍🏻.

Cons:

Į nepatikima,kad Nuostabios senovinės akmens sienos trukdė mano mobiliojo interneto ryšiui, bet rekomenduotas malonaus registratūros darbuotojo prisijungiau prie hotel WI-FI ir problema išspręsta.
P.S. Wi-Fi ryšįs labai geras.

If you are staying for a night it is not bad...
Pros:

The location is not bad, however you need to take a bus from the city center, it you take you in about 15 mins, but they are not very frequent. Staff were in general good but some of them did not solve my questions.

Cons:

The heaters were not working and it was really cold, they said they could not do anything about it; in addition there was quite noisy...

Absolutely nothing. No central heating. Nothing like the advertised pictures. Tiny cramped shower slash toilet. It was dirty. It was so poor i booked a different hotel as i couldn't stay there.

Cons:

I didn't like anything there whatsoever. I booked a different hotel as i did not pay to stay in squalor

A bed for the night
Pros:

The receptionist was nice.

Cons:

No heating. Asked to pay less n told didnt have to stay if we didnt want too. The TV didnt work. Booked a room for 2 got 1 towel. 1 cup. 1 glass. No where to hang coats up. Just enough toilet roll for the night. Booked a room with a private bathroom n had to show the receptionist proof that id booked a private bathroom. Cigarette burn in the duvet. Unscrupulous characters coming and going all night.
