Pros:

Le parking est pratique

Cons:

La literie est dure, pour les lits d'appoints on ressentait les ressorts.
Le lit n'est pas fait, c'est à nous de mettre les draps.
Le ménage est sommaire et le petit déjeuner aussi.

Wir waren angenehm überrascht und sehr zufrieden.
Pros:

Freundlichkeit des Personals und Sauberkeit. Ideale Lage in Flughafennähe. Parkplatz. Rund um die Uhr ist die Rezeption besetzt. Das Frühstücksbuffet reichhaltig und gut. Besonders gut zu nützen, wenn man Flüge zu ungünstigen Zeiten gebucht hat.

Cons:

Es gibt nichts zu bemängeln!

Zeer attent, geluidsarm, parkeren, 5 minuten vanaf luchthaven, aanrader
Pros:

Zeer attent personeel, geluidsarme kamer, goed ontbijt en parkeren. Pima hotel voor direct na de landing of voor vertrek vanaf Kreta. Ontbijt is al vanaf 07.00 en zeer gevarieerd.
