Escapada em família
Pros:

Localização ótima, diversões para crianças, usufruirmos do spa agradável em horários com menos pessoas (chega a ficar com muita gente em alguns horários), pequeno almoço muito completo.

Cons:

Não é claro nas opções de reserva se os quartos têm ou não varanda, o que nos levou a fazer uma reserva para um quarto sem varanda. Fizemos o upgrade para um quarto superior à chegada ao hotel.

טוב וסביר
Pros:

מלון במרכז עם חנייה של המלון בעלות 10 ארו ליום. הבעייה בארוחת בוקר שיש תור גדול למכונות קפה יש רק 2 מכונות תור ענק שמשבש את ארוחת הבוקר. בגלל הרבה קבוצות שמתארחות במלון. חסר גבינות לבנות רכות. גבינות לבנות חסרות טעם מוגשות בכל בתי המלון הכוונה לא לגבינות רכות. גבינות צהובות יש בשפע בכל בתי המלון אבל כמה אפשר לאכול את הגבינות הללו. הפרדוקס שביום השני קנינו בסופר גבינה לבנה פילדלפיה לייט והבאנו אותה לארוחת הבוקר.

Cons:

הכל אהבנו למעט ההערות שציינו.
