Pros:

Kedves személyzet, tisztaság

Cons:

A reggeli választéka kritikán aluli volt, ha elfogyott a péksütemény nem töltötték újra, mert nem volt. Az étkező egy szánalmas alagsori lyuk volt. Beázott a szobánk, majd a másik szobába költözés közben a szintén beázott folyosón hatalmasat hanyat estem, mert elcsúsztam a tócsán. Nem érezte úgy a szálloda, hogy valamivel kárpótolni kellene (nem anyagi természetűre gondolok).

Passt wenn man keine Ansprüche hat.

Un hotel bun, de buget.
Pros:

Pret per noapte foarte bun raportat la calitatea hotelului si la apropierea de zona turistica
Mic dejun ok si destul de variat dar cam acelasi zilnic
Caldura in calorifer + Ac pe cald.
Surprinzator de multă liniste pe timp de noapte.
Personal receptie zambitor si gata sa te ajute.
Alege totusi
o camera de la parter sau etaj ca sa nu fii dezamagit

Cons:

Putin mucegai pe perete si in baie dar nimic ingrijorator.
Sucurile si cafeaua de la micul dejun total dezagreabile.
