Pros:

Room and bathroom are bigger than what you usually get in hotels. Locations is great and allows easy access to downtown area and pretty much everything you want to visit.

Cons:

I would expect more from the breakfast. Some of the fruits were not looking very tempting, after the days spent on the table.

Pros:

Разположението

Cons:

Басейна е малък, мръсен и зает от детска група. Ресторанта е необосновано и незаслужено скъп. Закуската е без избор.некачествена.
