Welt Standard Entgegen den Photos bei hotels.com sieht die Realität anders aus. Protziges Eingangsportal und dann kleine abgenutzte Zimmer, Schimmel in der Dusche, Rost in den Ecken, abgenudelter Badvorleger, man weiß nicht ob der Teppichboden lebt... Am Empfang dauerte es fast eine halbe Stunde bis die Buchung gefunden wurde, das erste Zimmer in das ich ziehen sollte war noch nicht hergerichtet (19 Uhr...). Kein Stuhl oder Tisch auf dem Balkon. Gebucht war "Seeblick", kein See weit und breit, lediglich ein kleiner Fluss mit zugemülltem Ufer. Auch am Pool keine Liege oder dergleichen. Dusche mit verrosteten Armaturen, Betonsteine dreckig. Die letzten beiden Tage gab´s morgens kein warmes Wasser zum Duschen. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/565E75570D6BC0D0BED8AB2845B36823BFFCC9201706449099980.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Rolf Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Todmorden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Todmorden-Hotels.d6163340.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Yalikavak Marina Garden Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bodrum-Hotels-Yalikavak-Marina-Boutique-Hotel.h9378428.Hotel-Information) > > [Pan Pacific London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Pan-Pacific-London.h67541187.Hotel-Information) > > [Clevedon Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clevedon-Hotels-Clevedon-Hall.h17358685.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Marina Vilamoura](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Loule-Hotels-Tivoli-Marina-Vilamoura.h891222.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel ALBA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lourdes-Hotels-Hotel-ALBA.h860535.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartamentos Corona Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tias-Hotels-Apartamentos-Corona-Mar.h41337978.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Woodhall Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woodhall-Spa-Hotels.d4793.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [7 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, infinity private pool - best views of Ibiza, Can Avy ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sant-Joan-De-Labritja-Hotels-7-Bedrooms.h30097905.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fieldhead Hotel by Greene King Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Markfield-Hotels-The-Fieldhead-Hotel-By-Greene-King-Inns.h63735.Hotel-Information) > > [Uga Jungle Beach - Trincomalee](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jungle-Beach-By-Uga-Escapes.h7754814.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Guyana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Guyana.d74.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Rothay Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-Rothay-Manor-Hotel.h3495674.Hotel-Information) > > [Iberostar Waves Club Cala Barca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santanyi-Hotels-Iberostar-Waves-Club-Cala-Barca.h1896602.Hotel-Information) > > [Jamaica Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Launceston-Hotels-Jamaica-Inn.h11899700.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Derby (EMA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/ema/edinburgh-to-east-midlands) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Sa Khu (HKT)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/hkt/edinburgh-to-phuket) > > [Flights from Vientiane (VTE) to Manchester (MAN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/vte/man/vientiane-to-manchester) > > [Flights from Barry (CWL) to St. Peter (JER)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cwl/jer/cardiff-to-jersey) > > [Flights from Derby (EMA) to Hounslow (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ema/lhr/east-midlands-to-london) ### Cars ### Activities > [Things to do in Koutouloufari](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Koutouloufari.d602016.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages ### General > [Visit Pineda de Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pineda-De-Mar.dx182360) > > [Visit Limavady](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Limavady.dx5711) ---
