Wir würden es nicht nochmal buchen.
Pros:

Gute Lage für unsere Aktivitäten

Cons:

Zimmer war nicht sauber. Das Hotel ist abgewohnt. Die Holzmöbel sind verkratzt, der Teppich im ganzen Hotel hat Flecken überall. Poolhandtücher sind dreckig, wenn es überhaupt welche gab. Es klingeln überall irgendwelche Alarme, zwar nicht super laut, aber man hört es nachts, scheint aber niemanden zu interessieren. Nachts durch Züge und Lasterverkehr deutliche Lärmbelästigung.

Würden nicht nochmal buchen.
Pros:

Lage ist ok. Gutes Restaurant direkt gegenüber.

Cons:

An sich ist das Hotel ok. Aber der Teppichboden war so dreckig, dass die Socken von unten schwarz waren. Wir mussten in Hausschuhen durch das Zimmer.
Am 2. Abend haben die Gäste im Nebenzimmer eine Party gefeiert, ohne Rücksicht auf andere Gäste. Bis 4 Uhr nachts ging das.
