Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had very nice room decorations and beautiful showers, but the basic room without a balcony, even after paying for an upgrade, left much to be desired. On the bright side, the rooms were lovely, spacious, modern, clean, and well-furnished.
The hotel rooms were basic and dated, lacking balconies despite paid upgrades. On the positive side, the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The service was a mix, with some very helpful staff but also issues with consistency and communication. The location felt neglected and required a car for exploring, though there were some comfortable sunbeds available. The dining experience was subpar, with poor quality offerings in a crowded setting. The facilities were adequate but not exceptional.
The hotel was clean and basic, more like a banquet hall, and the rooms lacked expected upgrades. The service was kind but not up to a 4-star standard. The location required a car, and dining was limited, mostly industrial products.
The hotel I stayed at was okay, but the rooms were basic and without a balcony, even after paying for an upgrade. They were located in a building away from the main one but were well-maintained. The service was rushed and lacked attention to detail, which seemed to be a management issue. The location required a car to see anything, and communication was quite challenging. The dining options were decent, offering a variety of choices. The facilities were acceptable.
My stay at the hotel was an interesting mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although clean and spacious, felt more basic and dated rather than charmingly rustic. On the upside, they had comfortable beds and a large bathroom with a balcony overlooking a lovely vineyard, perfect for enjoying a glass of wine. However, the hotel's location, while offering nice views and a secluded atmosphere, left something to be desired with a neglected surrounding area and a feeling of being second-rate guests. The service was a bit hit-and-miss, with a helpful receptionist standing out among the otherwise indifferent staff. Unfortunately, the dining experience was subpar, with poor-quality meals served in less-than-ideal settings. The facilities were decent but didn't stand out as exceptional. Overall, a stay with both highs and lows.
