Kvalita mizerná, ceny vzorné.
Pros:

Jedině místo

Cons:

Velmi špatná angličtina (nebo žádná) u personálu, pokud rozumí, na jakoukoliv žádost o cokoliv odpovídá, že to nejde. Snídaně velmi špatné-podávané sousední kavárně. Menu: polovina krajíce japonského chleba a vařené vejce nebo džem. Na pití buď káva nebo čaj. Kavárna je malá a tudíž nedostačuje kapacitě hotelu. Volněji je až mezi 10-11 hodinou, kinak fronta v lobby.

Ogólnie jestem bardzo zadowolony pomimo tych drobnych niedogodności
Pros:

Lokalizacja, czystość, personel

Cons:

Śniadanie bardzo skromne, niewarte swojej ceny. Bardzo mały pokój, do tego stopnia, że nie dało się rozłożyć standardowej walizki. To nie jest pokój dla dwojga.
