Fantastic stay. Great value for money. We loved it and will return.
Pros:

Staff were friendly and helpful. Apartment was spacious, clean and had everything needed for our 4 day stay b

Cons:

The pool wasn't heated and was freezing cold. In saying that - it was winter time when we stayed so couldn't expect it to be anything above freezing. A little warmer would be nice.

Ok, da der Preis stimmt und die Lage
Pros:

Also Lage ist top. Man ist direkt nach ein paar Minuten am Strand. Mt. Tomaree oder auch die Düne bei Ana Bay ist schnell erreichbar. Preislich auch eher Kategorie Schnäppchen

Cons:

In die Jahre gekommen ist nett ausgedrückt. Das Appartement hat gut 20 Jahre auf dem Buckel. Warmes Wasser ging einen Abend erst nach ca 1,5 Stunden, den Toaster muss man festhalten, der Wasserkocher ist verrostet innen, Leisten in der Küche lösen sich und Muff-Geruch. Einmal frisch machen und es wäre top, aber so leider leichte Abzüge
