Tantissima potenzialità…peccato non sfruttarla. Struttura vecchia e da ristrutturare.
Pros:

Posizione, servizi anche per bambini e spiaggetta vicina davvero bella. Struttura con tantissima potenzialità…se solo venisse ristrutturata…

Cons:

Struttura vecchia, da ristrutturare. Bagno in camera e doccia bruttissimi, mancanza del frigo in camera, poco spazio per aprire le valige. Tutto vecchio. Servizio ristorazione inadeguato. Se fosse ristrutturata come le sue due strutture vicine dello stesso gruppo sarebbe anche migliore data la vicinanza della stupenda caletta vicina.

Absolutely shocking….
Pros:

I feel bad writing this review because the staff were absolutely lovely, but unfortunately the hotel itself was extremely disappointing and desperately needs revamping.

We only stayed for one night because it simply wasn’t up to the standard we expected. The hotel had an unpleasant smell and felt very dated throughout. The bathroom was particularly outdated, even still having a shower curtain, and there was no fridge in the room. Overall, the building reminded me of an old school rather than a hotel.

Unfortunately, we didn’t try the food because the surroundings were so off-putting that we didn’t feel comfortable eating there.

The biggest positive was definitely the staff, who were absolutely lovely, friendly and welcoming. It’s such a shame because with a major refurbishment, the hotel could offer a completely different experience.

Cons:

Every single thing!!! Apart from the staff.

Pros:

Pijača pri obrokih.

Cons:

Včasih je zmanjkalo tople vode pred večerjo pri tuširanju. Karte za trajekt so bile razprodane na dan odhoda. Nisem kupil vnaprej karte preko spletne strani, ker se kurbam vnaprej plača. Če zamudiš, karta propade. Smo morali na drugi konec otoka na trajekt. Smo imeli srečo, da je bil prostor za na celino. Če ne bi obstali na otoku! 🤔👎

Egy szép helyen, de ráfér a felújíttás!
Pros:

A tenger egyszerű megközelítése. A tenger gyönyörű. Nem vagyunk nagy étkűek, de meglepett a háromszori étkezés. És mindig találtunk valami finomat. A személyzet kedves volt. Jó elhelyezkedése a szállodának. A medence is szép.

Cons:

Régi az épület. Nagyon raférne a felújíttás. A szobák nagyon picik. Igen, írták, hogy 17 négyzetméter, de mi két gyerkőccel nem fértünk el. Szószerint csak aludni mentünk fel a szobába, persze, arra van, de, ha 4 en bent voltunk alig tudtuk megoldani az áttöltözést. Szekrényben nem fértek el dolgaink, egy hétre mentünk. Szóval a szoba nagyon káoszos volt! ( Egy 5, 7 éves gyerkőccel nem egyszerű)
A fürdőszoba is nagyon régi volt. A szoba sajnos nem az igazi...

Sehr schlecht
