Reviews
The pictures do not depict the actual hotel. The pictures look much nicer. We made reservations many months prior for two rooms with king beds, their description. My sister's room was great with a wonderful queen or king size comfortable bed and a bathroom that was huge. Our room on the other hand had a double size bed that rolled into the center and a bathroom that you could hardly navigate in. It was so small my husband couldn't even shower in there.
We were also severely disappointed in the fact that the restaurant and bar were closed down and had been for two months. You would think they would at least have the common courtesy to let guests know that in advance.
Breakfast was good but 15 euros per person.
The staff were all very friendly, and although there was no electric kettle in the room, they were able to lend me one.
I was also able to upgrade to a room with a bathtub for one of my three nights (for an additional fee), but unfortunately the bathtub didn't hold enough hot water, so I wasn't able to enjoy a long soak. I felt like the large bathtub with jacuzzi was a waste.
The first room I was shown smelt very bad and as I tried to open the window it felt like I broke it. The second room was tiny and the third room was just unter the roof with no space for a suitcase and not really space to stand upright. Only the bathroom was good.
Strange shower without a head holder.
