Consigliato, tutto ok
Pros:

La posizione, la camera spaziosa, la piccola piscina rinfrescante, la vista.

Cons:

Per essere estremamente critici qualche trascuratezza. Nel bagno il rubinetto del lavandino mancava di un anello cromato, la vasca da bagno aveva due bulloni sul pannello frontale ed uno era sprovvisto di borchia di rifinitura, il dispenser di sapone della vasca era staccato dal muro. Poche prese per le ricariche dei dispositivi, e cosa più fastidiosa di tutte le luci sui comodini non si potevano spengere dal letto, almeno noi non abbiamo trovato gli interruttori.
In ogni caso sono piccolezze, il rapporto qualità prezzo è stato molto vantaggioso.
Personale molto gentile e premuroso. Hotel consigliato

Asla 5 yıldızlı bir otel konforunda değildi
Pros:

Sadece kahvaltısı güzeldi

Cons:

Otopark yetersiz, oda aydınlatması yetersiz, çift kişilik istememe rağmen konforsuz tek kişilik yatakların birleştirilmesi, duş başlığı kırık, camlar bozuk, genel olarak odalar havasız ve karanlıktı.

good hotel, one terrible guy
Pros:

Hotel was good, nice sauna, good location, good breakfast

Cons:

The guy who works at the reception, the bald grey guy.
He was very rude not polite at all, had a big attitude and was acting like a b*tch the whole time.
He told us 3 times that the sauna was full and i checked it 3 times and it wasn't full, he just didn't want us to go because he didn't like us.
He probably has nothing to say at home with his boyfriend.

Pros:

Tutto bene parcheggio custodito camera accogliente personale gentile colazione di buon livello

Cons:

Arrivando in auto bisogna fare molta attenzione l'entrata non sì vede ma se si fa attenzione c'è un cartello con l'insegna e sembra di salire sul marciapiede e si entra in una strada privata

Pros:

L'hôtel est très bien situé avec un personnel très attentionné et professionnel. La piscine au dernier étage est un vrai plus surtout en ces mois d'été chauds.
La literie est très bien et la suite spacieuse.

Cons:

C'est un hôtel plus d'un niveau 4* et une rénovation des chambres seraient une bonne chose.
