If you don’t plan to use the pool I’d stay somewhere else.
Pros:

The pool

Cons:

Sadly, the staff. Sent me to a room where the safe has clearly been battered with a baseball bat and was not usable, advised a safe could be provided offsite
when I brought it up, but no further information given - had to carry my valuables everywhere I went as a result.

No basic customer service I’d expect from the staff of a hotel, eg giving out a map of the local area, offering recommendations of places in the area. They were physically there, but nothing more than that. Underwhelming!

Pros:

Location (close to center but far from noises), pool on the roof with seats with umbrella, breakfast was fine

Cons:

Lady at the reception was not nice - we came earlier to ask if we can leave the luggage before check in - eventually we could check in before time which was great but attitude of the lady ruined this nice gesture
We had romantic room without wine and roses as promised but we decided not to talk with reception due to this lady and ignore it

Für 1-2 Nächte ok.
Pros:

Die Lage ist fast im Zentrum und trotzdem ruhig.

Cons:

Die Ausstattung ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Das Hotel hat keine Parkplätze. Die Straße und das umliegende Gelände sind sehr abschüssig. Wir haben ne ganze Weile gebraucht um einen für unser Motorrad geeigneten Parkplatz zu finden.

Ótimo para quem quer gastar 600€ e dormir mal
Pros:

Gostei da staff e da localização

Cons:

Pessimamente limpo , tudo cheio de pó , a limpeza e a clássica colocar apenas lixívia em tudo para parecer limpo
As camas já está na altura de serem trocadas , têm covas nos colchões de tanto dormirem neles , e colocaram um segundo colchão em cima para não parecer tão mau
Não consigo entender como é que se quer tem 3 estrelas , 2 seria muito , e o valor também não compensa
O pequeno almoço péssimo , café era só água , metade da fruta podre , havia fruta já preta , ananás no caso , pedi para trocarem e disseram que ainda tava bom para comer
No quarto só há 1 tomada ao pé da cama

Chi a denti non ha il pane
Pros:

Posizione

Cons:

Bagno al limite del decente, la doccia improponibile con una specie di vasca e la tendina storta e anche sporca.
