adequate stay, some issues noted

breakfast choiceold furnituremissing coffee machine
the breakfast met expectations. it had a lot of choice.
our premium suite was not worth the price. the room looked nearly empty and looked as though someone had moved out, leaving old, unwanted furniture. there was no coffee machine in the kitchen.

modern saunaseparate areas
the room was a jó méretű szoba, mégha erkély nem is volt hozzá. the fitness area included trainings, so it was kiváló. the sauna was also elsőrangú and practical with separate areas for men and women.
The underground parking was very körülményes and cost an extra chf 40 per day. They did not specifically draw attention to this.
