Pros:

le lit etait confortable, et la chambre correcte

Cons:

le wc était sale en arrivant, les restaurants ceux peut ouvert, manque de choses à grignoter durant la journée si vous restez à l'hotel. Nous avons pris aussi un repas festif le soir de 20 euros par personnes et nous avons manger un sandwich et bu une bierre . Impossible de ce servir car il y avait trop de monde

Pobyt bardzo udany. Świetna lokalizacja na wypady motocyklowe oraz zwiedzanie.
Pros:

Śniadania urozmaicone. Bardzo dobra kawa serwowana przez obsługę. Można zamówić jajecznicę, omlet, jajka sadzone.
Do obiektu dotarliśmy na motocyklu. Hotel dysponuje parkingiem strzeżonym. Fajny basen, którego głębokość sięga trzech metrów. Plaża zagospodarowana. Leżaki, parasole, łóżka, i ważna rzecz prysznic.

Cons:

Przede wszystkim obsługa w restauracji przy plaży z której usług skorzystaliśmy tylko raz!
Kelner, który nas obsługiwał nie był miły.
W recepcji powiedziano nam, że w tej restauracji trzeba zarezerwować stolik na konkretną godzinę. Po przyjściu na miejsce okazało się, że jest sporo wolnych stolików i można usiąść przy dowolnym.

Pros:

Sauber, Frühstück war gut mit viel frischem Obst, Zimmer geräumig, bewachter Parkplatz

Cons:

Sämtliches Personal ist sehr unfreundlich, besonders am Strand und an der Rezeption! Die Klimaanlage sehr schwach, Ausstattung eher in die Jahre gekommen, Zimmer hellhörig.
Alles kostet extra (1 Handtuch für den Hotel-Strand 3€ pro Stück und 10€ Kaution!), Benutzung des eigenen Hotel-Strandes am Abreisetag 25€ für Schirm und Liege, im Pool Badehaubenpflicht!

Trebuie să ai mașina închiriată
Pros:

Camera spațioasă, recent renovată. Personalul amabil și dornic să ajute.

Cons:

Proprietatea ar merita o renovare, cam greu cu opțiunea de prânz în timpul săptămânii. Pernele au fost groaznice.

Pros:

Tutto altamente qualitativo. Personale eccellente

Cons:

Unica pecca se così si può definire e’ denotata dal menu del ristorante (buona cucina) che è sempre lo stesso
