Добър за кратък престой
Pros:

Локацията е добра, лесно настаняване, отзивчив персонал. Приличен апартамент

Cons:

Не беше почистен пода, оплаках се на рецепция и след като се прибрах вечерта отново намерих същите боклуци по мокета.

Pros:

Önünde park yeri bulabildik fakat iki boyunca aracı kımıldatmadık. Wifi odamızdan çok iyi çekiyordu.

Cons:

Kahvaltı 9:30'da bitmesine rağmen kahvaltılıklar 9:15 gibi toplanmaya başlıyordu. Bazı bitmiş kahvaltı malzemelerse 9'da daha yenilenmiyordu..Odada güneşlik vardı ama tül yoktu. Oda çok temiz değildi.

A disappointing experience: the room was quiet, but cleanliness, maintenance and breakfast quality n
Pros:

The room was during the night quiet, which made my stay more relaxing.

Cons:

Unfortunately, I had several issues when I arrived. I had to ask several times to change my room because the bathroom was very dirty, the telephone was not working, and the fridge was broken. At first, I was told that the fridges were simply not very cold, but the problem was that my fridge was switched off and not working at all.

After about an hour, during which I could not properly use the bathroom, they finally changed my room. The second room was better than the first one, but I still noticed some cleanliness issues: I took an extra pillow from the wardrobe and it was very dirty, with stains that looked like foundation. This made me feel that cleaning and room checks are not a main priority in this hotel.

מלון נחמד ושווה את התמורה
Pros:

הצוות היה נחמד מאוד ועוזר . המרחק לתחנת האוטובוס ולסופרמרקט היה 10 דקות . מרכז נוסף היה במרחק 10 דקות . הארנה היתה במרחק של 15-20 דקות הליכה אבל אני לקחתי מונית .

Cons:

לא ניקו ולא סידרו את החדר במשך כל השהייה שלי . לגבי ארוחת הבוקר : אם באת מאוחר וחסרו דברים לא השלימו אותם .

Pros:

I loved it when I left.

Cons:

I used to like that hotel. This time it was completely disappointing. Tv in the room was not working. Compressor of the AC system of the building was so noisy so I could not get any sleep. I moved out to another hotel.
