Une localisation idéale et un personnel au top pour un séjour parfait
Pros:

L’emplacement est idéal. Le rooftop pour le petit déjeuner avec vue. Le personnel est très professionnel et au petit soin.

Cons:

Le bruit de la climatisation et l’insonorisation avec les chambres voisines peuvent être gênante. Les bouchons d’oreille sont indispensables pour les sensibles aux bruits

Remek elhelyezkedésű, tiszta, kulturált hotel. 3-4 napos városnézéshez ideális választás.
Pros:

Az elhelyezkedés, személyzet kedvessége és a tisztaság.

Cons:

Minden tökéletes volt, talán annyi, hogy a reggeli kicsit lehetne változatosabb és nagyobb választékú.
