Pros:

Bei einer Buchung muss man natürlich wissen wofür man es benötigt und was man dort bekommt.
Mehre Nächte würde ich ich sicherlich nicht verbringen. Straßenlärm ist sehr laut. Aber wir haben es als flughafenhotel genutzt und dafür war es schlichtweg perfekt. Preis Leistung war hervorragend. Zimmer waren sauber.

Pros:

It was just a 5 mins drive from the airport, the location was excellent. I also liked the restaurant on the ground floor, which offered halal options and stayed open until midnight. The room was pretty average but I'd give full marks for the location.

Scrivete più volte all’hotel, perché si dimenticano. Per il resto sanno sistemare i loro casini velocemente.
Pros:

Nella struttura mi è piaciuto solo il fatto che esiste e che il signore dell’hotel è stato gentile a trovarci un altro hotel molto velocemente

Cons:

Non mi è piaciuto il fatto che siamo arrivati alle due di notte nono e nonostante avessimo scritto il giorno prima all’hotel, spiegando che saremmo arrivati a quell’ora quando poi siamo arrivati alle due di notte, il padrone dell’hotel non si ricordava della nostra prenotazione e aveva tutte le camere occupate, di positivo c’è il fatto che ci ha accompagnato in un altro hotel, pagandoci il passaggio

un peu déçu et énervé par ce manque de transparence . mais le deuxième site était très bien, calme
Pros:

chambre calme mais pas à l'adresse indiquée sur le site... ce fut une grande surprise source d'après discussions avec le gérant car le site de repli était beaucoup plus éloigné de l'aéroport et cette proximité a été la motivation de cette selacetion de l'hôtel

Cons:

pas du tout apprécié le changement surprise de lieu sans avis préalable et il a fallu négocier pour que l'hotel assume la prise en charge du transport ver l'autres lieu à plusieurs kilomètres de là. Cela manque de transparence et de loyauté. d'autant plus que les heures de sommeil étaient comptées. au final j'ai eu gain de cause mais la négociation le soir et encore au petit matin a été très âpre. Tres regrettable
