Toller Aufenthalt!
Pros:

Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und haben ein Upgrade bekommen. Das Zimmer war sehr gemütlich und sauber. Das Hotel liegt erhöht mit einer wunderbaren Aussicht. Leider hatte es geregnet, sonst wäre es noch schöner gewesen. Parkplatz inklusive. Das Frühstück wurde am Tisch serviert, und man konnte aus einer Karte bestellen. Es war alles sehr lecker.. Besonders erwähnen möchte ich auch die sehr herzliche Bedienung beim Frühstück. Alle Mitarbeiter waren einfach sehr sehr freundlich. Toll! Wir wären gerne länger geblieben, aber da wir auf Rundreise waren, passte das nicht in unsere Planung.

Cons:

Das Wetter an dem Tag😉

Da un 4* mi aspettavo di più
Pros:

Bella posizione, fuori dal centro con una bella vista.
Camera calda, parcheggio gratuito e wifi veloce.
Colazione a la carte con pietanze di ottima qualità.

Cons:

All’arrivo non siamo stati aiutati con i bagagli, ci è stata indicata la via per la camera e ci siamo dovuti districare da soli in questo labirinto di corridoi e scale.
Servizio alla colazione un po’ lento, personale un po’ disattento: ho chiesto se nella granola dello yogurt ci fossero le nocciole (sono intollerante), il cameriere mi ha risposto che era sicuro che non ci fossero, quando mi è arrivato il piatto invece c’erano eccome.

Exceptional customer service, food, sea view and sleep
Pros:

Our stay was exceptional. The staff went extra mile and even helped me to prepare a surprise for my husband’s birthday, they were practice, enthusiastic and kind. The food was delicious- it’s probably the best hotel breakfast I have ever had. We’ve enjoyed the window sea view, and huge comfy bed with lots of pillows-we had a restoring sleep there.

Cons:

Nothing even to mention here! I’ve noticed only minor thing: in a two person room, there was only 1 hook for bathroom towels in the bathroom. But it didn’t affect the quality of our stay :)
