Pros:

la decorazione della camera

Cons:

praticamente tutto. La colazione non è buona. non c'è un servizio prota bagagli. La spiaggia è distante è di libero accesso per tutti e non riservata afgli ospiti dell'hotel e ci hanno fgatto anche pagare un supplemento per l'uso dei letti e dell'ombrellone. Non c'è un bar nell'hotel e praticamente nessun servizio oltre alla colazione la mattina.

Waste of money
Pros:

Good location & loads of food spots
Locally and near beach

Good breakfast

Cons:

House keeping was never done,
Loads of amenities were broken such as the toilet, flooding in the shower, safe not working and getting locked, rude staff that work in the beach location as they prioritise foreigners who come to the country,
I am Albanian & who lives abroad and was treated so badly.

Towels for pool use came dirty
Sun cabanas at beach don’t come as a package for hotel guests which I think is ridiculous for the price I paid, not worth it don’t come back waste
Of money.

Also the parking is street parking and felt unsafe, as parking on the side of the building on a tight road, I was worried that other drivers would scratch my
Car trying to fit, staff didn’t care or help find a solution to move, staff also lack customer service they are very blunt & don’t go above and beyond to help.

Pros:

Cleanliness and the beds were comfortable.

Cons:

There was no safe. If also they arranged the safe, , there were no instructions of how to use it. There was no kettle to make tea. English tea was not available although there were various flavoured tea. The breakfast had very few options.

Pros:

Fin placering, og god lille pool på taget
Privat strand

Cons:

Det er et ældre hotel, så der bliver brugt lidt meget duftevand for at holde den “gamle” lugt ude.

Celkom dobre
Pros:

Dievčatá na recepcii boli veľmi mile, izba pekná veľká. Na to že bola do rušnej ulice, tak po zatvorení okna bolo ticho. Bazen na streche bol dobrý len staršiemu človeku sa ťažšie vychádzať. Na plaz to bolo veľmi blizsko. Pán ktorý daval lehatka bol tiež milý.

Cons:

Raňajky, každý deň to iste.. večere predražené. Na recepcii sme sa 3x uisťovali že nám objednajú taxík o 4;30 ráno, dievčatá na recepcii nám to potvrdili… keď sme ráno prišli o 4:30 hod, tam pán ktorý mal nočnú a spal na recepcii, po otvorení výťahu sa prebudil rozospany nevedel ani že má zavolať taxík… taxík prišiel o 4:50 a nestal 3500 leg ale 4000 lek nakoľko objednal najdrahší taxík, to bolo sklamanie a pokazilo to cely dojem…
