Cons:

В номерах была сырость. Я не остался ночевать вообще, так как были с ребенком. Попросил сделать возврат денег, мне сказали обратиться с заявкой через букинг. Я обратился, на словах все прошло хорошо, но возврат я так и не полуичл. Кроме этого цена не соответствует качеству. В этой цене есть много вариантов отелей гораздо лучшего качества.
