Engaño por booking y por hotel
Pros:

Nada

Cons:

Pague porque tenia parking en hotel, escribí un día antes de ir porque llevo cofre y me dijeron más tarde que el parking es para coches pequeños, no puede ir, evidentemente y no me devolvieron el dinero, no son transparentes en lo que anuncian y me siento engañada, para mí es un robo, tanto por parte de booking que no a velado por mis intereses aún viendo que tengo razón y que no han puesto la verdad de las instalaciones, cuando yo contraté por eso, como por parte del hotel, que no son honestos con lo que ponen, no queda otra que denunciar y contar en todas las reseñas y redes lo ocurrido para que tengáis cuidado, booking no se hace cargo de nada, pero os coches antes y el hotel tampoco.. Mirar bien donde contratais y sobretodo que la páginas protegan vuestro dinero e intereses.

Pros:

Beliggenhed er super i centrum og tæt ved stranden.

Cons:

Rengøringen på værelserne var ikke ok. Morgenmadsbuffet er ikke prangende, men gå an hvis man tænker på pris og udvalg som ofte hænger sammen.

Pros:

Aerul conditionat era ok si personalul de la receptie era dragut.
Recomand ca positional, aproape de mare.

Cons:

Raport calitate pret nu se merita.
Mic dejunul acelasi in fiecare zi, camerele destul de neingrijite.
Mizerie sub pat.
Timp de o saptamana nu s-a schimbat lenjeria.
