Prijs kwaliteit voldeed het hotel aan onze verwachtingen.
Pros:

De locatie is uitstekend.
We hadden ook via het hotel een auto gehuurd voor 3 dagen - dat verliep ook uitstekend dankzij de dame die aan een tafeltje zat naast de receptie. Het ontbijt is uitgebreid maar wel elke dag hetzelfde.

Cons:

Het zwembad is goed maar het is er heel druk.
Het gebouw is iets verouderd. Op een bepaald moment kwam er geen water uit de douche. We hebben zelfs een kakkerlak in onze kamer aangetroffen. De liften zijn ook druk bezet.
De ontbijtruimte lijkt precies een schoolrestaurant maar je hebt er wel altijd plaats.

Hangulatos, kényelmes, célnak megfelelő, de azért némi felújítás ráférne. Árérték arányban tökéletes.
Pros:

Közel volt minden, kedves rugalmas személyzet, tetőtéri medence.

Cons:

Liftek elavultak, lassuak. Nincs ruhaszárító a szobákhoz (teregetés hiánya) illetve lehetne ujítani mert sok helyen pattognak le a dolgok , elvan törve a wc mondjuk…..

Pros:

Hotel pulito camera confortevole con doccia spaziosa e ben funzionante, colazione abbondante soprattutto salata. Ottimo servizio di prenotazione escursioni con la sig.ra Annalisa molto disponibile e competente nel consigliare le scelte degli itinerari.

Cons:

Ultimo piano con la piscina esterna piuttosto piccola e spazio insufficiente per i lettini prendisole troppo vicini l'un l'altro e insufficienti per gli ospiti.
Scarsi i prodotti dolci nella colazione, principalmente salata ma comunque buona.
Non si possono riempire borracce di acqua al dispenser

Room for improvement
Pros:

The location

Cons:

Overcrowded facilities, malfunctioning A/C's in several rooms. Pool area too crowded and no pool towels available. No lock on safe in room, rooms could need renovation.

Avoid this hotel at all costs.
Pros:

Good Location

Cons:

1.You may not get the room you booked

Upon arrival, we were told that due to a "maintenance issue" our room was unavailable and that we would be transferred to another property a few minutes away. However, we noticed that several other guests were being told the exact same thing. This strongly suggests that the hotel may have been overbooked rather than experiencing a genuine maintenance problem.

If you choose to stay here, be aware that there is a real possibility that your room may not be available when you arrive.

2. Very noisy and impossible to rest properly

The accommodation we were transferred to was a ground-floor apartment located directly next to the elevator and staircase. As a result, we barely slept during our first night because of the constant noise from people coming and going.

Even after moving back to the hotel, the noise remained a major issue. The doors slam extremely loudly throughout the building, and the poor soundproofing means you hear everything happening in the corridors.

Housekeeping staff were also often very loud in the mornings, talking across hallways and repeatedly slamming doors while cleaning rooms. If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing stay, this is not the place.

3. Old facilities, extremely slow elevator, and disappointing breakfast

The hotel looks much better in the photos than it does in reality. The entire property feels outdated and worn out and is clearly in need of renovation.

The elevator is unbelievably slow. During busy periods, you can spend several minutes waiting for it to arrive, making something as simple as going up or down a few floors unnecessarily frustrating.

The breakfast was equally disappointing. The selection was limited, almost identical every day, and the quality was poor. Much of the food tasted like low-cost frozen products rather than fresh food.

Overall, this was one of the worst hotel experiences I have had.
