Super séjour à Maldron exceptionnel
Pros:

J'ai adoré le petit déjeuner avec une mention pour les petites salades feta et les puddings chia. Les lits étaient super comfortables et les coussins. La machine aux glaçons. La douche était vraiment agréable et fonctionnel.

Cons:

La vue était triste.

Cons:

Felt corporate and later check in time 3pm, and early check out, 11 AM made it more luggage storage than a place to stay.

Great location and nice hotel and breakfast but issues let it down for us
Pros:

Clean and perfect location

Cons:

Had a beautiful room bed and shower first night - toilet flush was faulty so we had to move - put in a bigger room but had a saggy mattress and aircon ineffective so had to put on fan (which was in the room) and open a window but there was a loose manhole cover outside which crashed every time a car went over it and workmen started to army in the morning. Great nights sleep in room 1 but no sleep in room 2 (due to bed heat and noise)

Pros:

Amazing location with the main street a minute away. A bit of a pain with having to park at city hall, but appreciated the discount. Room was modern, clean and a good size. Great service and good breakfast.

Pros:

Η τοποθεσία , άνετο δωμάτιο , καθαριότητα

Cons:

Το προσωπικό αδιάφορο
Κατά την άφιξη έκαναν λάθος στη χρέωση . Ευτυχώς που το είδαμε . Μας χρέωσε 45€ παραπάνω τη βραδιά
Τη δεύτερη ημέρα γυρνώντας από εκδρομή, βρήκαμε το χρηματοκιβώτιο τέρμα ανοιχτό
Κάποιος από στο προσωπικό το είχε ανοίξει με το πασπαρτού προφανώς και μην ξέροντας τον κωδικό , δε μπορούσε να το κλείσει
Τους ειδοποιήσαμε αλλά πλήρης αδιαφορία . Ούτε μια συγγνώμη. Η δικαιολογία ήταν ότι το προσωπικό νόμισε ότι φεύγουμε και έλεγξε το χρηματοκιβώτιο. Αφού τα πραγματά μας ήταν εκεί : ρούχα , παπούτσια , καλλυντικά , πως φεύγαμε αφήνοντας τα πίσω ;
Τέλος στην άφιξη (φτάσαμε στις 12 45)μας ενημέρωσαν ότι θα μπορούσαμε να έχουμε δωμάτιο, αν πληρώναμε 15€ επιπλέον
