Pros:

Hotel senza ascensore ,senza 1 dico 1 bicchiere sia in bagno che in stanza frigo acceso e assolutamente vuoto certo in entrata ci sono i distributori ma devi fare 2 piani di scale scendere e risalire . bastava lo dicessero che non abbiamo acqua e bicchiere . Penso che il bicchiere sia un diritto averlo . Penso di aver diritto ci siano bibite in frigo naturalmente a pagamento . Colazione classica di fine stagione appena sufficiente

Piacevole ma più igiene in tutto, camera bagno e cibo. Migliore qualità per il prezzo che paghi.
Pros:

La zona ben servita, comoda e abbastanza movimentata.

Cons:

La pulizia della camera, e la colazione lasciava un po' a desiderare. Lasciamo perdere sempre le stesse identiche cose, ma le varie cose ( salumi ortaggi, pane , torte ) devono essere rispettivamente coperti per mantenere igiene e freschezza.

Hotel migliorabile
Pros:

Ottima Posizione e arredo funzionale.
La colazione è abbondante e varia.
Il personale della reception è gentile.

Cons:

Avrebbe bisogno di manutenzione nelle camere, la luce dei comodini non funziona e neanche quella dello specchio bagno
Abbiamo cambiato la prima stanza assegnata perché aveva rubinetto del lavandino che perdeva molta acqua usandolo e il vetro della finestra rotto.
Manca ascensore
