Schlechte Betten. Viel zu laut
Pros:

Frühstück

Cons:

Betten hängen durch und dies führt zu Rückenschmerzen.
Party im Haus mit Musik, welche auch im Zimmer mitgehört werden muss. Obwohl ein ruhiges Zimmer gewünscht war!

Un po’ sì e un po’ no
Pros:

Struttura centrale con un’ottima colazione

Cons:

Accoglienza piuttosto scarsa, camera familiare superior molto piccola e con scarsa visibilità. Parcheggio privato (all’aperto) carissimo. Per il prezzo pagato mi aspettavo di meglio
