Pros:

Perfect place for our budget.
We were in the lowest price range of this accommodation and definitely we highly recommend the resort for any budget,look other cabins there are different choices,we choose the cheapest one and still were happy.
Restaurant and bar had tasty meals too.
Safe, clean and super friendly staff has everything that you need.
Thanks to everyone that made our stay so easy.

Pros:

I loved the location & safety of being in the resort.

Cons:

The room was very small & the extra bed advertised shouldnt be advertised as an extra bed/room, it is inhabitable without a window up there & the stairs are very dangerous for anyone climbing up there, especially young kids or elderly people. For the price, I definitely expected way better.

Pros:

Gute Infrastruktur durch Lage in einer Ferienanlage.

Cons:

Die Beschreibung und Bjlder entsprachen nur teilweise der Unterkunft. Einen Hinweis zur Lage in einem Ferienpark gab es in der Beschreibung nicht. Die Unterkunft war sehr einfach.

Superb
Pros:

Rooms have been updated beautifully since last stay. We checked in late and left early, so just needed a bed and didn't get to enjoy all the facilities

Cons:

Whilst we got hot water in the shower in the evening, it didn't get warm in the morning.
