Varázslatos kis sikátorokon keresztül jutottunk oda. 60 m-re van egy nagyon jó helyi kis étterem, kiváló konyhával.

Pros:

L hôtel est une ancienne bâtisse, avec des chambres très spacieuses, confortables, calmes. Tout le mobilier est en bois. Le petit déjeuner salé sucré est varié et copieux. Le gérant est extrêmement serviable.

Cons:

Rien.

Pros:

Przepięknie położony hotel rodzinny, ze wspaniałymi właścicielami, bardzo pomocni i życzliwi. Pokoje duże, gustownie urządzone. Przepiękny taras ze wspaniałym widokiem na miasto. Spędziliśmy cudowny wieczór rodzinny (10 osób) Zdjęcia nie oddają uroku tego miejsca! Miejsce w 100% do polecenia

As above - not a hotel experience.
Pros:

Breakfast was OK - typical B & B really.

Cons:

Finding the place in the first instance was a nightmare - we saw no signage anywhere in the town even when we at the end of the alley leading to the property. We had to keep asking the few locals we saw. This was not a hotel experience - just a B & B. There was a person to check us in but thereafter the only person in the hotel seemed to be a man who just loafed on a sofa in reception all the time. There was no bar and no restaurant open despite their website and despite the recommendation from Rough Guides. At least there were staff at breakfast.
