Pros:

Locația este buna....aproximativ 7 km de la aeroport

Cons:

Fata de la recepție ne-a cazat timp de o oră,deși era ora 2 de noapte. A vorbit nu in cel mai plăcut mod cu noi. A explicat ca trebuia sa venim pregătiți la cazare și sa ii dam o lista pregătită cine și cu cine se va caza.
In camere covorul de pe jos avea miros neplăcut și la cum arata era sigur de vreo 20 ani acolo.

Good but hotel management dishonest.
Pros:

The room was ok, with a lot of space, pretty clean. The bathroom was good also.
Breakfast was average.
The staff was very polite. Boy with longer hair very helpful.
Overall, the hotel aint bad but they were dishonest about their facilities (parking) so I will give them a lower grade.

Cons:

The hotel was dishonest about the parking.

I particulary put "parking" in the filter when searching for an accomodation yet when I arrived they say I have the option to pay for their parking or put the car somewhere on the street.

The bed is arranged so that the AC directly blows to the head, if you turn it on.
