отдых в Zimmer

Хозяин отеля очень приветливый и гостеприимный. Встретил нас, проводил, показал номер. Затем показал нам дорогу на пляж. Номер у нас был забронирован с завтраками. Каждое утро нам подавали тарелку с фруктами (арбуз или папайя, бананы), блины с яичницей, тосты, масло, джем, чай или кофе на выбор. В комнате была двухспальная кровать, которая занимала практически всю комнату и отдельный санузел, в котором был унитаз, рядом душ и умывальник. В потолке комнаты был вентилятор, которым мы активно пользовались и почти без перерыва, т.к. температура днем +34, а ночью +25. Рядом с отелем есть кафе для веганов. Готовят хорошо.

Gutes Hotel, nur fünf Minuten vom Strand entfernt

Wir waren leider nur eine Nacht vor Ort, aber wenn wir gewusst hätten, dass der Ort so schön ist, wären wir länger geblieben! Das Zimmer Rest, bietet ideale Preis/Leistungsverhältnisse und ist nur wenige Gehminuten vom Strand entfernt. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass es in einer Nebenstraße und zurückgesetzt liegt, somit ist es sehr ruhig in der Anlage. Das enthaltene Spa ist empfehlenswert. Der Besitzer und die Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich

LURAD av ZIMMER REST

Vi hade en bekräftelse på bokningen men när vi kom ditt på kvällen var hotellet fullt. Vad hade hänt om vi kommit vid 21 -22 tiden. Nu ordnade det sig med ett annat boende 100 m därifrån. Men hyresvärden tog bra betalt för det Zimmer Rest skulle kosta 60 dollar men det nya boendet kostade 40 dollar vilket vi fick reda på senare. Vi Betalde Zimmer Rest 50 dollar för det nya boendet, så han stoppade ca 100 dollar i fickan. Vi stannade i 10 dagar. Vi besökte Zimmer Rest någon dag senare och fick se ett av rummen. Mörkt och murrigt, var det så vi var glada att vi slapp det hotellet.

Sehr schönes, absolut Empfehlenswertes Hostel

Hotelbesitzer und das gesamte Team ist sehr freundlich, liebenswert und bei allem sehr behilflich. Ein optimales Hostel für allein reisende Frauen. Der Spar ist hervorragend ! Sehr gute Lage da das Haus von der Straße zurückversetzt ist man fühlt sich wie im Dschungel. Zum Strand sind es ca. 5 Gehminuten. Das Hostel und die Zimmer sind sehr sauber, aber kein täglicher Zimmer Service Das dazu gehörende Vegetarische Restaurant ist ebenfalls sehr zu empfehlen, man muss nur viel Zeit mit bringen da alles frisch zu bereitet wird Unawatuna ist einer der schönsten Orte an der Süd Küste da der Ort zusammen hängende Läden und verschiedenste Lokale bietet. .

Very Basic

Hotel seems overbooked, our room appeared to be a bed put in their office. Complete with the phone, hotel's internet and their computer (which we couldn't use). Internet was very slow and every time there was a blackout something beeped in our room. When asking if it could be stopped we were told not to worry as it only beeps for 5 or so minutes. Not helpful when you're trying to sleep. Staff were difficult to find and there was very little, if any, service. Good location though, just back from the beach, but extremely over priced.
