Pros:

Location, restaurant, Spa

Cons:

This is the smallest room I’ve had during my stay at this hotel. It’s actually a room for guests with special needs, even though I didn’t require one.

Pole väga väga ammu Tartus käinud ja hotell Lydia vastas täielikult ootustele.
Pros:

Hommikusöök oli suurepärane. Oleks võinud teine puder olla. Riisipuder ei ole nagu traditsioonilise hommikusöögi osa aga- maitse küsimus:)
Voodi oli väga hea.
Tegelikult jäin kõigega väga rahule.
Sissesõit parklasse tundus hirmsam kui tegelikult oli. Väljasõiduga probleeme polnud.
Asukoht oli väga hea, teatris käisime jala.

Cons:

Minul isiklikult oleks võinud kapis mõni riidepuu rohkem olla.

Väga hea hotell, kui edaspidi vajadus ööbida, siis kaalun kindlasti seda .
Pros:

Hubane, suurepärane teenindus, väga korralik hommikusöök, hea teenindus söögikohas, vaikne.

Cons:

Kas just ei meeldinud aga... väljast, vihma käest sisse tulles ei ole kohta kuhu üleriided tahenema panna, kappi märgi riideid ju ei pane. Võks olla ukse kõrval mingi nagi moodi asi.
Mingi lahendus bidee dušši jaoks.
Vannitoas võiks olla käteräti kuivati suurem, kõik rätikud ei mahu kuivama.
Ja veel: võibolla projeteeritud nõnda, aga rõduukse vasakult poolt puhub sisse külma, soojakadu ju. :)

Good experience overall, though allergy issues due to dust were a big downside.
Pros:

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Lydia. The location is excellent -very convenient and perfect for exploring the city. The warm swimming pool was amazing, especially for relaxing after a long day. Everything in this regard was great.

The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious with a great selection of food. Overall, the atmosphere of the hotel was very pleasant.

Cons:

However, there were a couple of downsides. The room felt quite dusty. I am an allergic person, and possibly because the bed is upholstered in textile and there is carpet everywhere, it may not have been vacuumed thoroughly enough. Both my child and I experienced strong nasal congestion almost immediately after arriving in the room. The symptoms continued during our stay and disappeared only after we checked out. It seemed clearly like a reaction to dust, specifically when we were inside the room.

Another issue was the temperature in the room. Even though I set the thermostat to the maximum of 25°C, it still felt rather cold.

Please take this into consideration. Aside from these issues, everything else was truly wonderful. Thank you!
