1. Pools are not heated (hotel is saving electricity), water is too cold for children 2. Room cleaning is extremely bad, they'd make your bed but would leave floor dirty (even if you leave couple of euros as a tip) 3. Food is very average, there are no places you can eat outside. 4. Hotel is close to airport, the... More
