Pros:

Lage, Sauberkeit, Frühstück, Hilfsbereitschaft der Mitarbeiter.

Cons:

Es war sehr kalt und die Klimaanlage im Zimmer ließ sich nicht zufriedenstellend regeln, die Klimaanlage im Frühstücksraum war auch sehr kalt eingestellt. In unserem Zimmer rann die Toilettenspülung durchgehend, war sehr laut und wurde trotz Hinweis nicht repariert.

Great location and comfy stay
Pros:

Great location - around restaurants and walking distance to most things.

Cons:

Seagulls were loud but the hotel has nothing to do with that. Just bring earplugs and be grateful to be able to walk along the river!

Good but could have been better, sleep was affected by bird noises.
Pros:

Breakfast, location, staff

Cons:

First room had the velux window broken and couldn't be closed. it should have been spotted bu staff and repaired.
Second room was good, but overall very noisy. Seagulls screams just outside the windows, could not sleep well any of the nights. It needs much better windows or ways to keep seagulls away.

Pros:

Wszystko było na najwyższym poziomie i dokładnie tak, jak powinno. Lokalizacja okazała się idealna, a czystość pokoju i całego obiektu była bez zarzutu.

Cons:

Szczerze mówiąc, nie zauważyłem niczego, co wymagałoby poprawy.
