Noroc ca este bine amplasat hotelul
Pros:

Pozitionarea excelenta, chiar pe plaja.

Cons:

Camera foarte îmbătrânită, instalațiile electrice la vedere, mobilierul vechi, baia foarte mică și vopsită doar pentru a schimba mirosul, prosoapele cu pete

Absolut top!, insbesondere Lage und durchweg freundliches Personal, sehr stimmiges Preis-Leistungsve
Pros:

Tolle Lage, direkt am Strand, abseits des Rummels aber unweit der schönen Altstadt, entspanntes Flair, total freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal - absolut top!

Cons:

Da fällt uns nicht viel ein.... unser Zimmer lag nach hinten raus, das war uns aber klar und für wenige Nächte auch nicht wichtig, nach vorne raus mit Meerblick sicherlich grandios!

Sehr schönes altes Hotel. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.
Pros:

Uns hat die Freundlichkeit der Betreiber und dem Personal besonders gefallen. Das Hotel ist einfach ausgestattet, aber es gibt einfach nichts zu bemängeln.

Cons:

Für uns gibt es nichts zu bemängeln. Man darf nicht vergessen, dass das Hotel ein zwei Sterne Hotel ist und das Gebäude schon 100 Jahre alt ist.
