Pros:

Restauranten, beliggenheten og servicen fra personalet

Cons:

Fikk rom like ved felles bad og toalett. Nattesøvn ble derfor svært forstyrret av dørslamring og trafikk inn og ut av wc/bad. Svært lytt også fra gangen av samtaler og lyder av folk som kom og gikk på natt og tidlig morgen. .

Wyjątkowe miejsce
Pros:

Naprawdę cudowne miejsce - pokój wspólny bardzo nastrojowy i wyposażony w darmową kawę i herbatę. Łazienki bardzo różnorodne, w tym jedna z pełnowymiarową wanną. Obsługa miła i bardzo pomocna. Same pokoje przyjemne choć skromne ale bardzo dobrze wyposażone i pozwalają nie tylko na wygodny nocleg ale też, w razie potrzeby, wygodną pracę.

Cons:

Na minus konieczność wychodzenia na zewnątrz żeby dostać się do drugiej części pokoi oraz restauracji ze śniadaniami mimo że budynek ma połączenie.

Molto bello!
Pros:

Struttura Molto caratteristica, ottimo ristorante, sala comune stupenda, piccolo cucinino per gli ospiti

Cons:

La stanza era davvero tanto piccola, non riuscivamo ad aprire le valigie praticamente, e non aveva posto per appendere i vestiti. Per una notte va benissimo, anche due, per una settimana magari conviene prendere una stanza più grande se il budget lo permette
