Pros:

Location, helpful staff with processing a refund for a second both made erroneously.

Cons:

Separated twin beds. I ordered a double bed, and expected a single, contiguous wide bed.

Enttäuschung, wir hatten 4 Tage Schneesturm, und weder eine nette Lobby am Abend, noch Abendessen
Pros:

Das Frühstück war sehr gut.
Es war immer sehr ruhig

Cons:

Es gab kein Abendbuffet, obwohl im Internet geschrieben.
Wir mussten jeden Tag relativ schlechte Krankenhaussandwiches essen. Es gab in der näheren Umgebung keinerlei Möglichkeiten, Essen einzukaufen. Ein einziges Mal gingen wir in eine Pizzeria, 35 min Fussmarsch in und 35 min zurück im Schneesturm, wir waren die Einzigen dort.
Schon bei der Ankunft nach der ersten Frage, bis wie viel Uhr die Haupttüre geöffnet sei bemerkte ich die Unfreundlichkeit des Personals mit der Antw: Warum, wollen sie mitten in der Nacht vielleicht raus gehen?
Auch auf andere Fragen an andere Mitarbeiter bekam ich sehr trockene und äußerst kurze Antworten.

Egy csodálatos város kiváló szálláshelye.
Pros:

Kedves, segítőkész személyzet. Tiszta, kényelmes, meleg szoba, padlófűtéssel a fürdőszobában. Gyönyörű kilátás a szobából, kiváló reggeli. Éttermi árakhoz képest nagyon-nagyon kedvező áron lehet ebédelni és vacsorázni is. A tömegközlekedéssel történő megközelítése is a város bármely pontjáról is kiváló.

Cons:

Nem volt ilyen.
