Pros:

- A szállás közelsége a városközponthoz

Cons:

- A WC körül állt a víz, ami, folyamatosan volt
- Több mint 40 perc múlva lett melegvíz, tusoláskor, ami 3 percig tartott, utána hideg lett...
- A kétszemélyes ágy nagyon kicsi, ketten, nem fértünk el rajta rendesen!
- Februárban foglaltam szállást és leírtam, hogy kutyával jövünk augusztusban, de csak a második emeletre kaptunk szobát, ami valójában a harmadik.. - ja, a lift több éve nem működik!
És fontos: a szobában, nincs fürdőszoba, hanem pár lépcsőfokkal alatta található egy másik szoba és az a fürdő!

A Motelt, szerintem fel kellene újítani, nagyon oda van!!!

Une nuit ok, mais pas envie de passer une deuxième nuit, content de partir le lendemain matin.
Pros:

Personnel agréable.
Facile de garer sa voiture.
Les lits d'assez bonne qualité.
Le petit déjeuner continental très bien.
Le ménage est bien fait, mais l'ensemble de la chambre est vielli.

Cons:

Trop cher par rapport à la qualité de la chambre.
La moquette nécessite un changement.
La salle de bain est médiocre.
Vraiment, la qualité n'est pas à la hauteur du prix bien trop élevé !

Very good if younger
Pros:

Breakfast Excellent Choices staff could not be faulted nothing was to much trouble, room was very clean with a lovely view

Cons:

As a couple of 76 & 87 the stairs were a bit of a challenge had we been 10 yrs younger no problem , we where warned but did not realise how steep the stairs where. Apart from that everything was fine and we accept that a building that age is not perfect (much like us Ha Ha ) would stay again if not for that

Alles in allem war es ganz ok.
Pros:

Tolle Lage, freundliches Personal

Cons:

Direkt am Meer heisst auch hoher Lärmpegel wegen den Seemöven.
Zudem ist es ein B&B. Das realisiert man aber erst, wenn man vor dem Eingang steht.

Schöne Unterkunft nahe dem Meer
Pros:

Die Unterkunft liegt nur 10 Gehminuten vom Strand entfernt. Das Familienzimmer war sehr groß und stimmig gestaltet.
Das kontinentale Frühstück war gut und ausreichend.

Cons:

Die Betten hatten unter der Matratze nur Metallstäbe und waren deshalb mehr als hart.

Gute Lage, leider keine besetzte Rezeption.
Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr gut, das Quartier sauber, die Häuser gepflegt.

Cons:

Die Rezeption ist nicht besetzt, d.h. man muss bei der Ankunft bei einer angegebenen Telefonnummer anrufen, damit jemand kommt, die Türe aufmacht und die Zimmerschlüssel übergibt.

Pros:

Lage in schönem Stadteil, ruhig, direkt an der Uferpromenade. Unser Zimmer hatte Blick aufs Meer. Schönes altes Haus. Einrichtung etwas schlicht. Gute Matratzen. Frühstück gut, leider keine Eier, aber sonst viel Auswahl.

Cons:

Bei einem der 5 Betten vielen Latten vom Lattenrost raus. Bad könnte schöner sein, war aber OK. Bei Anruf soll man vorher telefonisch Bescheid geben wegen Ankunftszeit. Dennoch hat es gedauert, bis ein Mitarbeiter kam - sind nicht vor Ort.

ALOJAMENTO ADEQUADO PARA ESTADAS CURTAS. NO MÁXIMO 3 NOITES
Pros:

Gostamos do quarto familiar. Muito confortável, espaçoso, bem arrumado e com uma janelinha com vista para o mar.

Cons:

Sem dúvida o que menos gostamos foram as escadas que tivemos de subir para chegar ao quarto que era no último andar. Edifício sem elevador.
