Sentralt og greit sted. Slitent så forvent ikke et luksushotell.
Pros:

Beliggenheten var absolutt den beste. Sentralt, relativt rolig ved gågate. Flott utsikt til sjøen fra balkongen.

Cons:

Rommet ble ikke rengjort den uka vi var der. Mulig det hadde blitt gjort om en ba om det. Var ikke noe stort problem for oss som stort sett bare sov der.
Frokosten var under forventning. Lite utvalg og ofte helt tomt for enkelte ting som brød !. Eggene - både de kokte og stekte, var konsekvent kalde.
Hotellet manglet heis og var på 4 etasjer.

Pros:

A szálloda elhelyezkedése és minden tökéletes volt.

Cons:

A parkolás nem egyszerű. Utcai parkolóhelyhez szerencse kell, még így sem biztonságos a szűk hely miatt.

Pros:

I like the location, The balcony and view was nice. Staff very nice.

Cons:

The bathroom had a sewage smell so the door had to be kept shut. I understand this is not the property fault.
The bathroom was clean just the smell at times. One side of the wall was stripping but I understand because weather can cause paint stripping.

Esperienza buona Durazzo merita di essere visitata
Pros:

La posizione dell'albergo e della nostra stanza era proprio a ridosso del mare, quindi ottima per potersi rilassare e godere della pace che offre Durazzo, Vicino all'albergo ci sono molti locali per mangiare bene e il lungo mare dove si possono fare piacevoli passeggiate è molto caratteristico . Buona la colazione unica pecca che non fanno caffè espresso e cappuccino.

Cons:

La pulizia della camera lascia molto a desiderare già al nostro arrivo, abbiamo trovato il bagno sporco e capelli nei sanitari,
per la pulizia della camera la mattina abbiamo dovuto chiedere se per favore ci venisse sistemata, il secondo giorno abbiamo richiesto la pulizia ma al nostro rientro abbiamo solo trovato gli asciugami puliti senza un minimo di pulizia ne di sistemazione stanza , la camera in cui alloggiavamo (la n°40) c'era il vetro della finestra spaccato bruttissimo da vedere e secondo noi anche pericoloso.

Goede ligging. Vuile kamer
Pros:

Ligging. Bed

Cons:

Kamer was echt vuil. In de badkamer lag er nog een kam van de vorige mensen. Het vuilbakje was niet leeggemaakt. Aan de haardroger hing er 1 of andere vuile draad. Na 2 minuten stappen in de kamer hingen er zo'n 30 lange haren op mijn sokken...

Pros:

La stanza, molto grande e nuova, letto comodo

Cons:

Avevo inserito il filtro del parcheggio, in realtà i posti sotto l'hotel sono pochi ed erano sempre pieni ed in strada il parcheggio è a pagamento fino alle 20:00
