Pros:

Všetko super, hotel je pekný a čistý, personál veľmi milí ❤️

Cons:

Veľa komárov, alebo mušiek a to bol len začiatok, toto je hrozne, určite by som doporučila na hotel sieťky, neviem si to predstaviť v lete 🙈

Pros:

Room was nice and big, very clean, good beds, blackout curtains. Decent breakfast.

Cons:

The shower area had a drainage issue. The soapy water after shower was all over the bathroom, which made it slippery. Not a problem you expect at this price point. The staff fixed it quickly by wiping it clean and providing us extra towels to prevent a recurrence. But I can't imagine that this is something they did not know about.
