Pros:

Отличный вариант на одну ночь! Брали жилье только переночевать. Всё супер: в квартире очень чисто, убрано и уютно. Никаких проблем не возникло, спалось комфортно. Рекомендую!

Rustig gelegen op prachtige lokatie. Zeer mooie kamer
Pros:

De kamer was prachtig, en de accomodatie is mooi gelegen, direkt aan het strand/

Cons:

De prijs. $322,71 per nacht vond ik achteraf gezin toch wel iets te veel, zelfs voor de zeer mooie kamer.

Cons:

Estaba cerrado, teniamos que ir a otra ubicación para recoger las llaves y cuando nos quedaban 15 minutos para llegar la carretera estaba con un gran humo debido a un incendio. Escribimos al hotel informando de ello y aun asi nos ha cobrado. Booking solo se desentiende diciendo que queda a la buena voluntad del alojamiento.

Love, love the location.
Pros:

The location is amazing, just steps from moonstone beach. Beds are comfortable. Maid service was great.

Cons:

It’s a little run down, but I see they are making upgrades to some of the rooms.Couldn’t get our landline phone to work. This was important since we had bad cell service. Unfortunately the pool was out of service but they gave the option of using the pool at one of their sister properties.

Cons:

Ho pagato l’hotel con Booking.com e mi è stato trattenuto dalla carta senza avvisare , l’intero importo del soggiorno anche da Fogcatcher.
Mi sono accorta e al check out mi hanno garantito che l’errore era risolto e il rimborso sarebbe stato fatto a breve . Sto ancora aspettando

Renovierung überfällig
Pros:

Die Mitarbeitenden waren alle super nett, freundlich, hilfsbereit. Die Lage ist schön, direkt am Strand, wenn auch durch die Straße getrennt. Nachts ist die Straße allerdings kaum befahren, daher kein Problem für die Nachtruhe.
Frühstück hätte es in einem Nachbarhotel gegeben, für 20$. Wir haben das aber nicht genutzt.

Cons:

Von außen ist alles sehr hübsch und gepflegt. Die Ausstattung ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen, zumindest in dem Bereich, in dem unser Zimmer lag. Wir hatten ein kleines Apartment mit Schlafzimmer und Schlafsofa im Wohnzimmer gebucht. Der Teppich war sehr abgenutzt und fleckig. Die Fenster nicht sauber, die Jalousien hängen schief, der Gas-Kamin ließ sich nicht anschalten (es wird im September nachts schon recht kühl). Das Sofabett war eine reine Zumutung; Alt, durchgelegen, bei jeder Bewegung quietschend und extrem unbequem.
Der Pool wurde gerade saniert, war daher nicht zu nutzen. Man hätte zu einem Partnerhotel gehen und den Pool dort nutzen können, das war aber nicht Sinn der Sache und bei Buchung auch nicht bekannt. Das ganze hätte zu einem billigen Motel gepasst, da würde ich mich auch nicht beschweren. Hier passen Preis und Leistung aber leider gar nicht zusammen.

attenzione che non vi facciano pagare doppio!
Pros:

La struttura è sul mare, bella atmosfera, camera spaziosa.

Cons:

La cosa che ci ha lasciati molto perplessi è il doppio addebito della camera e della cauzione. Pagato prima su Booking in anticipo e fatto ripagare una volta giunti all'hotel. Cene siamo accorti noi e dovrebbero rimborsare, ma ancora non ne abbiamo la certezza e questo è molto sconveniente.
