Es war desolat! Einfach furchtbar.
Pros:

Überhaupt nicht

Cons:

Es war extrem schmutzig. Aus dem Schwimmbad sind wir rückwärts wieder rausgegangen. Die Umkleidekabinen waren total heruntergekommen und super schmutzig. Überall lagen Haare und Müll. In den Zimmern hat die Dusche nicht richtig funktioniert. Der Wasserhahn war kaputt. Es war Schimmel an den Wänden im Badezimmer. Das Bett war super unbequem. Es war Schimmel im Kühlschrank auf dem Zimmer. Der Fußboden war unglaublich fleckig und von außen war die Anlage sehr heruntergekommen und überhaupt nicht wie auf den Fotos.
