• Michaela from Slovakia – 1 December 2024 (9/10)

  Apartmán bol čistý a dobre vybavený, pohodlná posteľ, riad akurát pre pár. Chybali mi len poháre na víno, a utierka v kuchyni. Inak všetko super.
  
  What could be improved: To úplne nemal ako ovplyvniť prenajímateľ, ale toto bolo zlé: Počuli sme všetko z apartmánu nad nami… Strop vrzga tak, že rezonuje lampa (odporúčam pozrieť či sa nedá lepšie prichytiť alebo vymeniť celé svietidlo) Vychytali sme susedov nad nami, zjavne pár, ktorí celé noci dupali po izbe, kričali a druhú noc sa hádali a asi aj bili… Asi sú tam staré drevené stropy, ktoré absolútne zvukovo neizolujú, a keď má hosť smolu na nájomníkov nad sebou, akých sme mali my, nevyspí sa. My sme sa nevyspali absolútne, kvôli ľudskému faktoru to bolo nemožné.
