ottimo soggiorno: relax, cortesia e attenzione per l'ospite.
Pros:

Abbiamo apprezzato molto la gentilezza e professionalità del personale in struttura. Abbiamo apprezzato la vista, il bar dell'hotel, la piscina e la spa.

Cons:

alcuni ambienti necessiterebbero di maggiore manutenzione. Dettagli nel complesso trascurabili, ma un peccato per una struttura cosi grande e con potenzialità maggiori.

Średnia jakość za średnią cenę, położenie wybrane przeze mnie kiepsko.
Pros:

W sumie to pierwsza uwaga / hotel jak na moje standardy nie ma 5*, nie wiem skąd się wzięły… pokoje są spoko, dosprzatane trochę po egipsku, na szybko, miejsca sporo.
Spa….sauna mokra i sucha i maleńki basen. Nie jest to żadna przewaga nad czymkolwiek innym w okolicy.
Basen zewnętrzny to maleństwo i z 15-20 leżaków.

Cons:

Głupio wybrałam położenie zakładając, że koło Etny będzie fajnie. Hotel jest na uboczu i do wszystkiego jest stosunkowo daleko.
Bardzo kiepskie śniadania w cenie 15 euro/osoba. Serio słabizna.
