Pros:

Habitación amplia, camas amplias y cómodas.

Cons:

Habitación con olor a humedad.
No funcionaba el aire acondicionado y hacía mucho calor.
Fue un domingo y me dijeron que recién al día siguiente se vería pues no estaban los encargados de mantenimiento.
Me dieron un ventilador pequeño que a penas soplaba.

Hotelli pilasi Salzburgin, mutta toki paikallinen kulttuuri, jossa viikonloppuna ei ruokaa ja juomaa ole saatavissa juur
Pros:

Huone oli siisti ja kivasti sisustettu.

Cons:

Ilmastointi ei toiminut. Koko hotelli oli valittu, koska siellä oli ilmastointi. Kuumat yöt, kova liikenne ikkunan takana. Nukkumisen voi unohtaa. Kompensaatio vahingosta oli olematon 20% aamiaisten ja autopaikan hinnasta. Ilmastointia käytiin katsomassa kaksi kertaa ilman tulosta. En voi suositella maksaville asiakkaille.

Leider keine Empfehlung!
Pros:

Das Frühstück war okay.

Cons:

Leider keine Empfehlung!
Das Badezimmer schimmelt (Decke, Wände, multiple Fugen auch neben dem Waschbecken), das Zimmer riecht, die Möbel sind alt und beschädigt - teils mit Klebeband geklebt.
Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis stimmt überhaupt nicht - vor allem, da zusätzlich noch 20€ Parkgebühren pro Nacht und Ortstaxe dazu kommen.
Weiters gibt es einen Gemeinschaftsbalkon. Einen kleinen Kühlschrank gibt es nicht. Der Safe war defekt!
Das Personal war teilweise unfreundlich.
Für diesen Preis war der Aufenthalt leider unzumutbar.

poor service from the front desk
Pros:

Stayed here on the night of June-28, 2026 in room 212.
This room opens to a shared balcony with patio furniture accessible from all other rooms on the floor. They had provided dove brand's body wash, body lotion, hand wash, shampoo & conditioner in the bathroom & a complimentary still water bottle in the room.

This hotel is located opposite the Dorint hotel & resort. Ate a continental breakfast here on the morning of June-29, 2026.

Upon checking in, our group's multiple room key cards were NOT activated & flashed red upon placing them on the door reader & we had to take them back to reception to which we were given told by the lady wearing glasses at the front desk that she had forgotten to enable them!

It is the front desk manager / in charge's job to check that the room key cards are all enabled before handing them over to the guests to prevent inconveniencing them from coming down just for this all over again, specially when they are tired from a full day's touring and would just like to rest.
