The worst thing guests say

The most serious complaints involve the pool and extra costs. In October 2026 a guest who booked through Hotels.com wrote that extra costs at the pool were not stated clearly (the text is cut off). In May 2026 a guest said the pool was advertised but unavailable and not likely to be ready soon, and they learned this after booking. In July 2026 a guest staying 15 days objected to paying 40 euros per (the text is cut off). Two June 2026 guests complained about other guests' dogs, one a returning guest who said it had changed. Cleanliness was raised in May 2026. In the 26 newest reviews, all October 2026, the lowest is the 1-star pool review. Many of those reviews are short thanks to named staff from diners and event guests.

Insider tips

• Ask what the pool costs and whether it is open before booking.
• Plan on the bus or a car, since guests describe it as a few kilometers from the center.
• A 2022 guest said the closest store is a 12 to 15 minute walk.
