Passable
Pros:

Personnel très sympathique et accueillant. L’hôtel est idéalement situé, à seulement quelques pas du Vieux Bazar. Gros plus pour le magnifique rooftop, qui offre une très belle vue sur Skopje !

Cons:

Le gros point négatif reste la literie, vraiment très inconfortable. Le matelas est à ressorts, penche d’un côté et donne presque l’impression de tomber du lit. Dès que votre conjoint bouge, tout le matelas bouge avec lui. J’ai eu mal partout le lendemain.

La salle de sport est également très décevante : les machines sont anciennes et, lors de notre séjour, quasiment aucune ne fonctionnait et sont complètement bloquées.

Enfin, le petit-déjeuner est clairement en dessous de ce que l’on peut attendre d’un hôtel 5 étoiles : très peu de choix et des produits de qualité assez moyenne.

Pros:

Läget var bra och frukosten var enkel men bra.
Personalen var oftast väldigt hjälpsamma vissa pratade mindre Engelsks

Cons:

Vid ankomst till hotellet satt det en full gäst och skrek på folk och svor och hotell personalen bad den personen som inte gjorde något att gå ut och vänta istället för att säga åt den fulla gästen
