Pros:

Die abgelegene ruhige Lage
Die vielen Pflanzen
Der Pool
Das grosszügige Zimmer
Die Weitläufigkeit des Hotels
Die Pflanzen

Cons:

- Die Security fehlt! Ich fühlte mich nicht sicher!
Habe Rezeption am ersten Abend erzählt, dass ich von einer Gruppe Männer am Pool angebaggert wurde und ich mich nicht sicher fühle und fragte ob sie Security haben.
Die Frauen an der Rezeption beantworteten meine Frage mit einem:"Nein, leider nicht."
Es wäre gut, wenn das Management ein Mann als Security anstellen werden würden. Nicht nur wegen weiblichen Gäste sondern auch wegen den vielen weiblichen Angestellten! Ca. 90 Prozent des Hotelteams sind Frauen.
- Als allein reisende Frau wäre ich froh gewesen nicht im EG sondern im 1. Stock ein Zimmer mit Balkon gehabt hätte.
- Ein Mückengitter für das Fenster wäre super toll. Konnte in der 1. Nacht nur 2 Stunden schlafen, weil mich die Mücken nicht nur am ganzen Körper sondern bei meinem Augenlied gestochen haben.
- Der Duschkopf muss unbedingt ausgewechselt werden. Der ist leider schon sehr alt deshalb grün und schwarz.
- Neue Rolläden wären auch nicht schlecht.
- Irgendwie funkioniert das Schloss der Zimmertür nicht richtig. Musste immer mehrmals mit der Schlüsselkarte probieren bis das Schloss aufschliesste.
- Die Klimaanlage funktionierte auch nicht richtig.
- Das Frühstückbuffet war einbisschen bedürftigt.

Pros:

Les chambres spacieuses et climatisees on était entouré de policiers, gendarmes et militaires : très en sécurité.

Cons:

La cuisine sans zucun ustensile dans les chambres. Et les petits déjeuners manquent de choix. La camomille au petit déjeuner non merci.

Simple, pratique mais beaucoup à revoir
Pros:

La propreté malgré des équipements vétustes

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner, pas de « salé » si vous ne payez pas! Inconcevable de nos jours…

Było dobrze.
Pros:

Super basen, cisza i spokój. Nie ma najmniejszej potrzeby rezerwowania leżaków. Obsługa bardzo miła, dobrze mówiąca po angielsku.

Cons:

Brak menu w rezerwacji. Jeżeli ktoś chce kupić kolację to musi cały pakiet, nie można zamówić pojedynczych rzeczy (nie ma menu).

Buon hotel con ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo
Pros:

Un buon hotel, situato in posizione comoda per chi viaggia per motivi di lavoro. Ambienti comuni e stanze pulite. Personale cortese. La struttura è dotata anche di ristorante pertanto si può cenare senza dover riuscire dopo una giornata di lavoro.

Hotel dobry, ale położony daleko za miastem. Autobus kursuje ze zmienną częstotliwością.
Pros:

Basen i jego otoczenie.

Cons:

Brak czajników i filiżanek do kawy w pokojach- w trzygwiazdkowym hotelu to jest standard, tu nie było nic, bo sprzęt kuchenny można dostać tylko wtedy gdy się zostaje na minimum 7 nocy.

Horrible Hotel
Pros:

Probably the worst hotel I have ever been too. Thankfully, we only stayed for a couple of hours as we had a late flight out of Brindisi airport.
Hotel would be a complete stretch, it’s more like a motel. It’s advertised as a cheap hotel but it’s actually quite expensive for such a horrible place.
The rooms are really old and quite smelly, the biggest issue by far was the reception staff, so rude and unhelpful, I understand there was a slight language barrier but it was really clear they had no interest in helping customers even with basic queries.
I didn’t eat there but the drinks were disgusting.
The only possible positive thing I can say is that the pool was actually okay.
