Je ne comprend pas les bonnes notes de cet hôtel... Très vieillot et la salle de bain vétuste !
Pros:

Bonne localisation, belle vue

Cons:

Douche petite et vétuste ... Chambre qui devrait être remis au goût du jour, draps housse taché

Pros:

Piękne otoczenie, bardzo nastrojowe miejsce, personel to nasi rodacy mili uprzejmi

Cons:

W łazience deszczownica to konieczność każdorazowo zmoczenia głowy, przez co trzeba sie nagimnastykować aby wziąć szybki prysznic

Pros:

Okolica jest całkiem ciekawa, a kościół magiczny :)

Cons:

Śniadanie mogłoby zawierać ciepły posiłek, a pokoje mogłyby być lepiej zaciemnione. Łazienka jest maleńka i niekomfortowa. W pokojach jest duszno i występuje dziwny zapach.

Lugar muito bonito
Pros:

O hotel está situado num lugar muito bonito. O cenário é lindo. O quarto é espaçoso, mas o banheiro é muito ruim. O restaurante fecha as 21:00 e não tem como comer nada e o hotel é longe de tudo.

Cons:

Banheiro muito pequeno. Longe de tudo, não tem nada para comer depois das 21:00 - no verão fazrmos tudo mais tarde.

In Bezug auf Sauberkeit Potenzial nach oben: Teppich sah ungereinigt aus, Hot Pot ebenfalls unsauber. Eine Rollade im Zimmer defekt.
