MARKO

Disliked: Cleanliness

Barely okayish

The hotel looks a bit like an outdated 90's cruise ship. There have been updates but basically too much bling bling. Had a premium room, which looked like a standard room with lake view. Glass wall inn the shower was dirty and during the whole stay (4 nights) there was no proper cleaning. No new coffee cups, no clean wine glasses. Breakfast was okayish, don't know how do they do their bacon but those felt more like beef jerky. Otherwise not too busy. Felt disappointed and probably looking for another hotel for my next visit.
