Veľké sklamanie za zaplatenú cenu
Pros:

Pekný areál, bazény a dobrá poloha rezortu. V minibare boli pripravené nápoje.

Cons:

Bohužiaľ, negatív bolo viac ako pozitív. Na izbe chýbali poháre aj otvárač na sklenené fľaše, takže minibar nebolo možné naplno využiť. Klimatizácia nefungovala, čo bolo počas horúceho letnneho dnaveľmi nepríjemné. Ráno sme si navyše všimli zatečený strop, čo nepôsobilo dobrým dojmom a vyvolávalo obavy z technického stavu izby. Za cenu ubytovania sme očakávali podstatne vyšší štandard a lepšiu kontrolu kvality.

War OK
Pros:

Ich bin das dritte Mal im selben Hotel.
Mir gefällt das Kinderprogramm sowie der Sandstrand und dass Essen. Angebot sowie Preisleistung haben gestimmt.

Cons:

Dieses Mal war das Bett kaputt sowie der Boden war bei der Ankunft bis zur Abreise schmutzig, weiters hatten wir kein Warmwasser beim Waschbecken nur Kaltwasser. Dieses Mal hat die Preisleistung nicht gepasst.
