Comfortable stay
Pros:

This accommodation is comfortable. You will need transport to get anywhere from there, you can walk but the roads around are not very walking friendly, at least during rainy season. But if your stay is short and you have pick ups and drop offs it is very good and recommendable. Breakfast is good and if you don't have time to have it there, the friendly staff can give you a breakfast box o bring with you. There is also a restaurant on site, the food is ok.

Pros:

Personeel was vriendelijk

Cons:

De kamer was gedateerd, de bedden steen hard. De badkamer was erg oud. Douche nodig toe aan vervanging. Het ontbijt was in een andere ruimte dan op de fotos en beperkt. De foto's zien er echt anders uit en geven een vertekend beeld.

Ugodan boravak sa svim potrebnim sadržajem.

Odličan smještaj u blizini centra. Sobe čiste i osoblje ljubazni, svaku večer špricaju sredstva protiv insekata.
Restoran na vrhu zgrade sa pogledom na grad.

Hotel bi mogao omogućiti prostoriju za fitness ili na vanjskoj površini napraviti fitness rekvizite.
