Świetna lokalizacja, ale stan obiektu taki sobie
Pros:

Świetna lokalizacja. Wygodne łóżko. Pomocny personel.

Cons:

Uważam, że obiekt potrzebuje remontu. Spaliśmy my tam 2 razy - raz dostaliśmy pokój na piętrze, gdzie w łazience był wyczuwalny aromat pleśni, a drugi raz w pokoju na parterze, gdzie słychać było każdy krok i każdą rozmowę, a w łazience było zimno i odpływ od wanny to jakieś nieporozumienie. Śniadania słabe.

Pros:

Hotel v centru kúsok od všetkých pamiatok

Cons:

Vrzali podlahy a v noci nad nami v jednom kuse niekto pobehoval po izbe a to vrzganie bolo neznesiteľne nedalo sa tam spať aj preto že bolo z vonku strašný hluk z reštaurácii až do rana + velmi mäkké postele . V miestnosti s raňajkami smrdeli naftalinove guličky a raňajky boli úplne priemerne až podpriemerne. Nechápem to úžasne hodnotenie na základe ktorého som vybrala tento hotel.

Pros:

Хороший камерный отель, приятный персонал, есть даже русскоговорящие. Номер просторный и уютный. Очень чисто. Вкусные завтраки, для маленького отеля достаточно. Всегда есть скрембл, чай, кофе. Мы были в марте, когда было холодно, о нас позаботились и поставили обогреватель, с ним было очень тепло!
Организовали трансфер за доп.оплату. Все четко, по расписанию. Спасибо!

Pros:

Дуже привітний та турботливий персонал🥹
Нам допомогли підняти наші валізи на поверх 🫶🏼
Ми відчували себе в безпеці і наче вдома, після довгих піших прогулянок чудово відпочивали і міцно спали на новому місці. На сніданку є все що необхідно, щоб добирати КБЖУ, якщо ви за ним слідкуєте. В номері є безкоштовна негазована вода, кава в капсулах з кавомашиною, чай з цукром. Ми проживали вдвох і місця було достатньо як в кімнаті так і в санвузлі.
Дякую всьому персоналу за чудовий досвід у моїй першій подорожі🤍🤍🤍🤍
