Disliked: Cleanliness
In dem Zimmer steht ein Bett, einen Handtuchhalter, ein Tisch, ein Stuhl, damit ist die Möblierung umfassend beschrieben. Wir kamen an, das Zimmer war sauber - Roomservice lt. Infoblatt alle 2 Tage; am 7. Tag hab ich dann neue Handtücher geholt und das Bett neu bezogen ... Das Zimmer hat einen Ventilator an der Decke, keine Klimaanlage - klar was das bedeutet, 28-30 Grad, 80% Luftfeuchte. Gelegen ist es zwischen der Hauptstrasse und den Bahngleisen, in der Nähe ist eine Schrank mit großem Geläut und der Zug gibt Signal beim Einfahren in den Bahnhof. Alle in allem haben wir nicht so gut geschlafen und uns sofort auf eine 5 tägige Rundreise verabschiedet - das Bett ist relativ kurz, das Moskitonetz gut und dicht. Zu den angenehmen Seiten zählt die zentrale Lage, im Garten vor dem Zimmer wurde auf der Wiese ein Tisch aufgestellt, an dem wir morgens frühstückten. Das Frühstück ist SEHR GUT. Alles in allem eine günstige Herberge, die man wählen kann - Komfort und Ruhe sind nicht gegeben. Freundliche Menschen, gefühlte Sicherheit, gutes Essen - im vorderen Bereich (Rezeption) mit SPA, Ayuverda, Fischtank. Öffnungszeiten zwischen 9:00 und 21:00. Eher 2 Sterne als 3 Sterne ... Wenn man klein (Bett!) und arm (günstiger Preis) ist, einen todesähnlichen Schlaf hat und es warm mag - sicherlich eine Option, einfachen Urlaub in guter Lage zu erleben.
