clean roomhelpful staffwide varietyextra charge
the room was clean each day it felt brand new. the staff were cute offering assistance with directions. breakfast offered a wide variety of choices including gluten-free options which was so important. the front desk staff were helpful directing us to an english-speaking doctor when needed.
the gym was an extra charge i found this surprising. i would have appreciated this included in the stay. it was 10 euros per person per day. i decided not to use it at that price.
