Все стало намного хуже
Pros:

Месторасположение, персонал был очень участливым.

Старая мебель, кровать на трех ножках, не работающий холодильник и сейф. После наших замечаний вынуждены были переехать в другую гостиницу.

Хороший отель, хорошее место. С персоналом легко можно найти общий язык. До ключевых мест рукой подать, трамвай очень рядом. До берега пешком 5 мин.

Pros:

Lokacija

Cons:

Na samom prijavljivanju na recepciji su nam saopstili da zbog tehnickih razloga moraju da nas premeste u drugi hotel na jedno nocenje. Sutra dan smo dobili sobu u izabranom smestaju i za vreme ostatka boravka nisu nam menjali ni peskire ni posteljinu. Dorucak je bio skroman ali ukusan.ocena za cistocu 5/10.
