Très bon séjour!
Pros:

J'ai beaucoup aimé la chambre 218. J'ai déjà été logée chez vous avant dans une chambre qui me convenait moins. Le petit déjeuner est très bien aussi. L'hôtel est parfaitement bien localisé par rapport au centre ville et accessible en voiture!

Konforlu temiz rahat
Pros:

Oda büyük ve temizdi. Konumu çok merkezi. Çalışanlar çok ilgili, güleryüzlü ve yardımcıydı. Biz kahvaltı tercih etmedik. Her yere yürüyerek gidebildik. İlk giriş yaptığımız gün gece çok geç gelebildik , herşeyimiz hazırdı ve gelene telefondan sürekli yardımcı oldular. Özellikle bayan Katerina ya çok teşekkür ediyorum 🙏 bize o gece çok yardımcı oldu🙏

Ein schöner Aufenthalt!
Pros:

Wir wurde upgegradet!

Der Seifenspender im Badezimmer war am ersten Abend nahezu leer, am zweiten Abend definitiv leer. Seit Corona sind Seifen im täglichen Leben wichtiger geworden...
