Kein Komfort, fehlerhafte Dusche, fehlerhaftes WiFi-Netzwerk (mit geringer Bandbreite Wireless-Router und jede Investition, Kosten zu senken), elektrische Schaluppe funktionierte nicht zu schnell entladen wird, nach einer Stunde voller Batterie Kreuzfahrt war leer und 3/4 schnell hatte Segel! Nie wieder! Sockets in dem Schlafbereich hinter den Bettkanten versteckt, indem wir herausfinden und nicht im Voraus erläutern. Der Service an der Rezeption ist nicht zufriedenstellend schlechten Zugang (begrenzte Stunden), keine Kenntnis von technischen Fragen in Vorfälle, keine gute Erklärung Benutzung Waschmaschine (Sie hatte sich wieder zu kommen), ist das Restaurant ausschließlich von der Unterkunft und Empfangsfunktion getrennt erlaubt keine Übertragung möglich ist, Benachrichtigungen (du nicht bei mir sein sollte, und bis zum nächsten Tag warten !!). Auch das Restaurant ist seit 0830 geschlossen !! Eine Catering-Anlage, die so früh in einem touristischen Gebiet schließt ??? Kurz gesagt, sind wir hier nicht mehr !!! Und schließlich sind wir sehr wütend und unzufrieden mit den Einnahmen. Wie können Sie es wagen diese Preise auf einer Website wie diese stellen, die schon schwer zu erreichen, und dann auch die Preiserhöhung in der besonderen Feiertagen Zeit (dh reine Ausbeutung!). ##### Luchien W.
