Emplacment top mais chambre pas agreable
Pros:

L'emplacement, Tram T1 a 2 min a pieds, commerces et restaurants a proximité
Petit dejeuner moyen mais vue magnifique de la terrasse

Cons:

Reception trop petite et peu conviviale
Chambre familiale petite mais surtout la vue sur un mur tres haut, aucune visibilite a part ce mur et des machines de clim, tuyau citerne...
On ne voyait ni lumiere du jour ni soleil juste un
mur haut on etait au 2 em etagé. Mais toutes les chambres n'ont pas la meme vue.

Pros:

Хороший отель, за свои деньги - отличный) завтрак суперский, каждый день разнообразие.
В центре города возле трамвая, уборка каждый день, вода, чаи - все есть. Персонал улыбчивый, приветливый. из минусов - окно смотрит в стену, и уборка немного подхрамывает. В остальном все хорошо) еще и бассейн хороший, единственное - раздевалку можно расширить) хамам хороший. Вернулась бы еще раз? Думаю да)
