Pros:

The staff were generally helpful, and the accommodation was affordable.

Cons:

The room was on level -1 with a view of a wall. It was a bit small, but you get what you pay for, and I knew that. The staff provided a transfer when I asked, and they sent a photo of the car that picked us up at the airport, which was all good. On the way back to the airport, a completely different car showed up than what we agreed on, and when I complained, the hotel said, "The VIP car was only for pickup; the way back was a normal taxi, otherwise they couldn't make any profit." None of this was clear from the start. I feel misled, so if you're thinking about buying a transfer with them, just be aware.

Чудовий готель
Pros:

Чудовий готель близько до всіх туристичних пам'яток. Неймовірно приємний персонал готелю. Чистий номер, чиста постільна білизна і рушники, гаряча вода в душі. Сніданок шикарний, але доводилось ходити за ним в інший готель.

Cons:

Маленький номер, але нам на двох було достатньо.

Foarte placut , aproape de Grand Bazar
Pros:

Am avut un sejur foarte plăcut de 6 nopți la acest hotel. Camera a fost curată și confortabilă, iar raportul calitate-preț a fost foarte bun.

Cons:

Un mic inconvenient a fost faptul că dulapul din cameră este destul de mic, iar hainele trebuie organizate mai atent pentru a încăpea. De asemenea, este important de știut că serviciul de curățenie nu se face automat zilnic – trebuie anunțat la recepție, iar personalul vine ulterior să facă curat , însă acest aspect oferă flexibilitatea de a alege momentul potrivit pentru curățenie .. deci poate nu fii nu neaparat ceva neplacut
