Lovely resort with small drawbacks *

The hotel was ok. The only negative I can find -- the bathroom - was clean but the quality of the conformity took some getting used to. The location of the hotel - quite remote and therefore high prices in the shops in the hotel. The ride into the city worth it. The transfer to the hotel - about 30 minutes - okay. The front desk - friendly and uncomplicated. Complaints are handled quickly. languages - English, Russian, German (less). Guest structure - everything: ) - German, English, French, Belgian, Russian, Polish, locals, Arabs from Saudi Arabia ... - A multicultural environment. If you don't like - should spend his holiday in the local outdoor swimming pool. There was a doctor in the hotel! It is recommended that accepted medicine (take the pharmacy at the hotel is extortionately expensive): against diarrhea things as prevention or cursed with diarrhea and a bit against fever (heat stroke possible). The (Spar) room - sufficiently large, clean, quiet (despite Strasse) with a view of the pool. Safe, TV, fridge in order. The bathroom - see above - not very good but clean way to the beach from the budget room - approximately 5 minutes over tunnel The food: delicious, varied but relatively few fruit. We had no problems with digestion. Drinks - okay. (could be better) Entertainment - for adults in order, for kids - more for infants (under 7 ) - Our son (11 ) the entertainment bored. Pool area - clean. Beach chairs, beach towels - there was more than enough. Gardens - very nice beach: access to the water a stone staircase with handrails - sometimes slippery, but the violations can be careful avoid. Beach chairs and beach towels - there was more than enough. Private beach towel is but recommended since the from the hotel are on the small side. The sea- beautiful! It is, however the called up to about 30 minutes. Swimming. Leisure time activities: diving base on the beach - highly recommended - diving excursion - very good! Excursions we booked with the tour operator. Drive into the city - taxi took on the street (not from the hotel), price - just negotiate (approx. 3 -$5 per ride)! Shopping possibilities in the hotel - as little competition - expensive. Conclusion: The hotel is highly recommended, if you didn't have high expectations, luxurious, but it is not for a nice holiday it is adequate.
