Skaista pilsēta lieliskā vietā, tuvu apskates vietām un pilīm – saņēmām tieši to, ko gaidījām!
Pros:

Liels paldies personālam, kas atrada iespēju mūs izmitināt zemākajā stāvā, jo bijām informējuši, ka viens no mums pēkšņi ir satraumējis kāju. Viesnīca atrodas Brašovas vecpilsētā. Ļoti viegli orientēties, viegli sasniegt visu nepieciešamo apkārtnē. Lai arī numurā nav kondicioniera, neskatoties uz lielo karstumu ārā, ēka ir sena un saglabā vēsumu.

Cons:

Nav tā, ka kaut kas nebūtu paticis, vienkārši brīdinu, ka par auto novietošanu vajag konkrēti vienoties iepriekš, pretējā gadījumā vietas nebūs. Var meklēt vietu apkrātnē, kas sanāk krietni lētāk, bet mums ar to paveicās tikai pirmajā vakarā. Nākamajā dienā bija sarežģitāk atrast, kur noparkoties.
Matracis..... JĀMAINA!!! Atsperes dūrās elkoņos :)

Pros:

Totul foarte frumos. Camera spațioasă,
mobilata in stil vechi, foarte curata . Un pat foarte confortabil. Baia mare și f curata. Mic dejun diversificat , cu de toate f bun, servit într-o locație f drăguță.
Personalul foarte amabil, ospitalier.
Daca am sa revin in Brașov, cu siguranță mă voi caza tot în acest loc.
Un mare plus este și poziția , f aproape de majoritatea obiectivelor de vizitat.

Great location.
Pros:

The location of the hotel was great, and we were able to walk around old Brasov easily as well as find the base for the cable car.

Cons:

The parking was very tricky and while we understood that we needed to find our own parking on the street, we didn't realise how hard this would be. We also didn't realise that we could pay more to book parking near the hotel. This could have been made more clear by the hotel both on booking and at check in.
The room and bathroom were small and basic, especially compared to others we stayed in in Romania on the same trip. They did not match the pictures on the website.

Ein schönes Stadthotel mit netten Personal.
Pros:

Es ist gut gelegen in der Stadt. Ein schöner Hinterhof und man gelangt gleich von außen in sein Zimmer. Personal war auch sehr nett.

Cons:

Das eine oder andere bräuchte eine Reparatur im Zimmer (TV fiel bald von der Wand; Duschstange hielt nicht ).

Ne-am simțit bine
Pros:

Camere curate și spațioase, locație cu aer istoric, central, totul aproape, personal amabil, absolut totul în regulă.

Cons:

Patul dublu este compus din două single cu un topper. Am dormit destul de OK dar tot s-a simțit gaura la mijlocul patului. De asemenea, micul dejun ar putea beneficia de varietate, mai ales pe partea caldă: bacon care este bacon, cârnați în loc de crenvurști, varietate de ouă prăjite (moi, bine făcute, medii) deoarece unora nu le place albușul nefăcut.

Pros:

El hotel es muy bonito con un patio interior maravilloso.

Cons:

Aunque aparece que cuentan con parking y en principio había que reservar, cuando llegamos no habíamos reservado y no pudimos contar con parking , pero es que tampoco era posible reservar para el día siguiente ya que estaba ocupado toda la semana y hay bastantes problemas para aparcar fuera al ser calles céntricas.
