В общем - отлично, но есть нюансы.

Персонал - прекрасно Чистота - прекрасно Кухня - хорошо Расположение - неудачное. Рядом железная дорога, и проходящие поезда (в сутки раз 6-7) прилично шумят, в том числе ночью.

The hotel between rail and highway with nice beach

There is a hotel in relatively small spot (100m) between 4 lane highway and rail. A breakfast served was constant, so if you're an egg fan - welcome You need to cross 4 lane road to reach the beach. The beach is perfect both for swimming and surfing There is no SPA

Bon hotel

Nous avions une chambre vue sur lac. Elle est grande, moderne, avec une belle salle de bain. Mauvaise insonorisation. De plus, la ligne de chemin de fer passe juste derrière. Le petit déjeuner est top! La piscine est très agréable.
