Prettig hotel en een leuk Sardijns stadje met lekkere restaurants in de omgeving.
Pros:

Midden in Pula, relaxte sfeer en prettige kamers. Naar het strand kun je ook lopend, ongeveer een half uurtje wandelen. Ontbijt bestel je de avond van te voren en wordt geserveerd in de binnentuin

Cons:

Midden in Pula betekent ook dat je soms de geluiden van buiten hoort.

Pros:

Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Cons:

Der Parkplatz war ca 5 min zu Fuß von der Unterkunft entfernt. Der Parkplatz war wie ein Hinterhof.
Manche Gäste haben nicht auf eine ordnungsgemäße Parksituation geachtet und somit war es erschwert das eigene Auto rauszufahren es wurde teilweise zugeparkt, sodass man keine Möglichkeit mehr hatte rauszufahren.

Sfeervol verblijf in Pula!
Pros:

Heel vriendelijk personeel! Leuke locatie midden in het dorpje. En sfeervolle kamer! Ook fijn dat je op 5 min lopen de auto veilig op de parkeerplaats kan zetten. Daarnaast is het restaurant beneden ook een aanrader. En heb je nog andere leuke eettentjes en wijnbarretjes in de buurt!

Nice Location and Breakfast, but Noise Made It Almost Impossible to Sleep
Pros:

The hotel's location is undoubtedly its strongest point. It is right in the centre of Pula, with restaurants, bars, shops and all main services within easy walking distance. Breakfast was another highlight of the stay. It is pre-ordered the evening before and served fresh the next morning. The selection follows the classic Italian breakfast style, and the quality of the products was excellent. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared, and the table service was friendly, efficient and attentive. This was, without question, the aspect of the hotel that I appreciated the most. The hotel also offers parking, which is valuable in a central location. Although the parking area is about a five-minute walk away and accommodates only a limited number of vehicles, it is certainly better than having no parking available at all.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the quality of my sleep was severely affected by the noise coming from the surrounding nightlife. In August, on Friday and Saturday nights in particular, music from several nearby bars and venues could be heard at very high volume from approximately 10:30 p.m. until 2:00 a.m.. Even after the music stopped, the area only became relatively quiet around 3:00 a.m., and by 6:00 a.m. street cleaning vehicles and waste collection services were already operating. Sunday was just a little bit better. The result was that sleeping and resting properly became extremely difficult. We had to use headphones with noise-cancellation in order to get some sleep. While this situation is obviously not the hotel's fault, I believe guests should be informed in advance, especially those assigned to Rooms 1 to 5 facing the main street, where the impact appears to be greatest. The problem is further amplified by the fact that the windows and sound insulation are simply not adequate for this type of environment. At times, it genuinely felt as though the music was playing inside the room rather than outside.
Communication before arrival was also disappointing. Of four messages sent through Booking.com, only one received a response. In addition, check-in became unnecessarily stressful because the room initially offered did not correspond to the accommodation I had booked. I had reserved a triple room for double occupancy, but was initially assigned a standard double room. Resolving the issue required time and lots of discussion before an agreement was eventually reached and the correct room was provided at no additional charge. I appreciate that the matter was ultimately resolved, but the process created avoidable tension at the beginning of the stay.
Overall, I found the hotel itself pleasant, and I genuinely appreciated the breakfast and the central location. However, the nightly noise was so extreme that it had a significant impact on the overall experience.
