Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Location was perfect for us, breakfast was excellent.
Negative: No air conditioning in the apartment, even if this was clearly listed in the booking confirmation under room facilities. It was unbearably hot, especially in the bedrooms. Also, this made it impossible to use the sauna, as it would have heated the apartment even more. The terrace and terrace furniture were covered by bird excrement when we arrived; we requested them to be cleaned, which was done, but only for the first floor terrace and only for the furniture and not the floor. At the check-out, I was expecting the usual 'how was your stay?' question, but received only 'thank you, good bye', although it was not a busy moment. The rooms with a view are understandably given for longer staying guests, hence we did not get one (we stayed 3 nights) - I'm not convinced those were occupied during our stay; it did not bother us in the end, but a view would have been a nice plus.
Summary: Excellent location, very good breakfast with a beautiful view.
