Eric

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
No staff service whatsoever. I did not get a code to get into the room or the hotel. Nobody responded to the texts and calls. So I was stranded with two kids with us for the night. Kids got nervous and cried, it was a hectic and terrible night for my family.

Evgeny

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
They cancelled my reservation at the last moment, but kept my money. Refusing to refund. Staff very unhelpful and very slow. I wanted to say "you get what you pay for", but in this case I paid money and got nothing. So my sincere recco is to stay away from this shady place.

Mainio paikka
Yhden hengen huone oli huippukivasti sisustettu, viihtyisä ja hyvin ilmastoitu. Yhteiset tilat olivat mukavat ja siistit. Sijainti erinomainen. Rauhallinen.
