Proche du centre ville , l’emplacement est parfait.

Chambre petite mais suffisante si vous partez souvent en vadrouille.

Ubytování je přímo v centru, všude se dá dojít pěšky. V okolí restaurace a bary. Hrad je asi 15 minut pěšky. Personál byl velice milý a ochotný. Pokoj byl čistý a připravený. Každý den se dokonce uklízel. Byli jsme spokojení.

Pokoj byl opravdu velmi malý. Topení na pokoji bylo také malinké, takže občas byla v pokoji docela zima. V koupelně nebylo topení vůbec, takže tam byla zima opravdu velká. Navíc nebyl v koupelně ani žádný přímotop nebo žebřík, kde by se daly usušit ručníky.

La ubicación, la atención del personal y la limpieza de la habitación

Nada. Por decir algo, lo único es que nos tocó una habitación que tenía el baño fuera, por lo que a veces era apenas incómodo. Pero nada que no nos haga pasar una estancia genial

"Hotel à éviter"

1.0

emplacement, décoration correcte

3eme étage sans ascenseur, pour y accéder il faut en fait changer de maison par 3 escaliers différents. Ai été obligé de réclamer, le chauffage était très faible, eau chaude au robinet en débit faible ET surtout, lit de mauvaise qualité, pas de sommier et un matelas IKEA très mince. Ai été obligé de réclamer une couverture pour la mettre sous le matelas et amortir un peu la dureté du lit. Bref, n'en pouvant plus je suis allé dormir la dernière nuit dans un autre hôtel
