Love the location, service and property. Noisy at night with clubs nearby blasting dance music until 4 in the morning most nights. Lovely stay otherwise, would definitely recommend

Das Hotel wäre super gewesen, wenn es einen Zimmerservice gegeben hätte, der das Zimmer täglich gereinigt hätte und die Handtücher getauscht hätte.
Das war in den 3 Tagen nicht der Fall.
Am zweiten Tag, obwohl wir das "bitte reinigen" Schild an der Tür gehängt haben, kamen wir nach Hause und es war nichts gemacht und das Schild hing immer noch an der Tür.
Very nice area, 5 min walk from the train station, overall had a great stay at the hotel and very good breakfast :)

Vilka blízko pláže
Hotel je stará vilka, interiér je prerobený, nakoľko okná má povodné, vobec netesnia a nie je odhlučnený, každý večer počuť hluk z ulice, čo narúša pohodlie. Blízko Siofok pláže.
Die Matratzen waren zu weich, wobei das aber jeder gerne anderes mag, aber ansonsten war alles super für den Preis, nettes und sehr zuvorkommendes Personal und alles sauber
Lovely Hotel only a few minutes walk to the Lake. Friendly staff. Only bad thing would have to say about the place is that the air conditioning in the room was a bit noisy.
