      The hotel is excellently located, clean and with spacious rooms. But the staff is not very friendly. The life guards, as they call themselves, create an uncomfortable atmosphere around the pool. They can be compared to the Soviet-style commandants you used to find in dormatories etc in the former east block. Not something you want on your vacation.
