Luxus und Entspannung pur
Pros:

Absolut empfehlenswert! Tolle Lage mit traumhafter Aussicht auf die Marina und die historische Altstadt. Die Zimmer waren sauber und das Frühstück à la cart. Der absolute Hit für uns war definitiv der beheizte Jacuzzi Pool und die kleine Feierstelle.

Pros:

I love the location.

Cons:

I booked this place because of it being on the waterfront. However, AFTER I booked it I had to sign that there was no fishing from their docks. The bed was supposed to be a king., however, it was not a king. It wasn't even a California King. It was more like a queen. Also, the bedding had an funky smell. Literally smelled like someone put a little bit of fart spray in the washing detergent.

Satisfied
Pros:

Stayed 2 nights during the week. Clean room and facility. Quiet. Great location. View from our room balcony was perfect especially when too chilly to be out much. Gary at reception gave us a warm welcome, checked us in quickly, gave us an overview of the area and suggested several restaurants. Liked that the key cards worked consistently without a hitch. Elevator. Would certainly stay there again and recommend highly.
