Va bene se ci devi stare una notte.
Pros:

La colazione è più che sufficiente.

Cons:

Struttura vecchia e di pochissima manutenzione, le piastrelle del bagno in camera ( pavimento, contorno specchio e termosifoni ) sono stati verniciati a pannello e male.

Pros:

Lokalita v centru města. Kousek od náměstí. Snídaně dostačující. Parkování pod hotelem sice na veřejném parkovišti, ale s hotelem spojené výtahem!

Centrale ma obsoleto
Pros:

La posizione centrale ed il garage coperto (giustamente a pagamento)
La cortesia del personale

Cons:

Struttura assolutamente obsoleta che necessita di completa ristrutturazione,
Aria condizionata (regolabile solo la velocità della ventola e non la temperatura) che necessita di essere spenta per alcune ore di notte per problemi di surriscaldamento del macchinario.

Appoggio per Siena
Pros:

Staff gentile, disponibile ed accogliente.
Stanza pulita e dotata di tutto ciò che è strettamente necessario.

Cons:

La stanza era un pò cupa, le lampadine le avrei preferite con una luce fredda.
Un comodino in entrambi i lati del letto sarebbe preferibile

Bon emplacement, mais une grande structure plutôt pour des groupes, accueil très sympathique.
Pros:

Bon emplacement, mais une grande structure plutôt pour des groupes. Grand parking pour voiture ou motos.

Cons:

L’hôtel était très grand, ce n’était pas pratique pour nous parce que nous avons eu plusieurs bagages à porter. (Voyage en moto)
