First impression - all good, nothing extraordinary. It wasn't all good!||||So on the way there you get to 100m away from the place and you have to pass a 25m dirt road which looks quite awful if it rains. No signs, no nothing.||||Here's how it went:||||1. Next to the jacuzzi they offered a half empty, family pack sized bottle of shampoo previously used by someone else. The tap inside the jacuzzi was broken. Luckily the water flow wasn't affected. At first the water coming out smelled bad, as if it was coming from a pond.||||2. Wanted to put some music on. There stereo in the room was from the early 00s. Couldn't connect a phone to it or get radio signal. Ended up using my iPhone's speakers :)||||3. Downstairs there is an open toilet without a door and a small sink with a rusty soap holder. You can see all the plumbing, all the fittings, everything. ||||4. There isn't a normal shower, just the jacuzzi in the middle of the room. You can have fun in it but if you wish to take a normal shower it's quite awkward being in the middle of the room.||||5. Mid winter. Storm outside, -10 degrees. The balcony door didn't fully close (see photo).||The room had 1 undersized radiator and 1 small electric heater. Neither of them helped. Had to get socks on and another blouse while under the blanket. Woke up in the middle of the night and started dissasembling the sofa to hold the door better.||||Next morning we talked to the lady manager and she told us it's because the whole building is made of wood. Who cares? Get it fixed! We couldn't sleep. Felt like we could get sick.||||6. Disassembling the sofa revealed that it's been a looong time since they've last cleaned it (see photo).||||7. When booking we were told that they have an open restaurant. Once we got there we found out it was closed. Had to go into town to get some food. Twice.||||8. There isn't a single trashcan in the room. Had to put our trash into plastic bags.||||It's either that the manager doesn't have any clue how to run the place or she just doesn't care.||||We wouldn't go...
Me and my girlfriend booked the Observatory for one night and all I can say it s that it looks completely different from the pictures. Old and dusty place and clearly outdated. First thing that you see when you enter the cabin is the so called bathroom that is actually a thin wall that hides a wc and a sink and guess what? There s no door at all. So if one of you lovers go to the bathroom for a modest number 2 , your partner will hear and probably smell the show. Also the wc flushing mechanism was broken and after 3 or 4 flushes I had to remove the cap to tighten the button back. Even if the night was so cold and we set the temperature to 25° , it stay set to 19° or even 17.5° if one of you want to make a shower because guests what. You have to choose between warm water or heat. And that s not all. The jacuzzi buttons were broken , you eighter got freezing cold water or boiling hot. There s no middle way. Also the smell of the water was terrible and there s no pressure at all, so the shower is like someone spitting water. The sheets from the bed were overused and smelled weird. Dust all over the place. There is no TV in the room and to be honest that was unexpected for the price of a one night stand in this "room". Poor lighting with only 2 lights.|The road you have to drive on to reach the complex , from the main road, is a nightmare so if you are driven a lowered car you should take in consideration that you won t be able to reach the complex without scratching the heart of your beloved car.||The only beautiful thing on this stay is the view. And only the view that you get from the balcony. But it does deserve the price! I will never book again at...
Read moreWe have been there very recently. Initially we booked house number 4. All good, until we saw the rooms and two of us found some mice excrements on the sofa in the living room, in every corner of the living room and under the radiator. After we discussed with the host, she agreed to give us two other mini villas(taking in consider we were 2 couples, one with a little child). “Casa Traditionala” and “Casa de Piatra”. Fortunately we did not find any mice excrements, BUT everything was one step away from falling apart. The sink in the second villas consisted in a barrel, which was rotten to the bone and literally one push away from falling. A lot of the ceiling elements were unaligned, the bath in the bedroom was not sealed properly and was leaking all over. The terraces from both villas were made out of wood, which was rotten too! We were afraid to lean on them and even walk on some areas. Fear that was founded, because in the last day, my friend was carrying his child in his arms and all of a sudden he almost broke his leg because one step fell apart, this one being rotten also! Another thing that blew my mind was that the doors would stay closed only if you lock them with the key, otherwise don’t expect them to stay shut. In “Casa Traditionala” there is a stove, with instructions, very clear written on a piece of paper right next to it. We followed the steps that we were told and after we light the fire, all of a sudden a very strong smell of smoke was all over the room. We had to keep all of the windows open for a few hours to get rif of the smell. All in all, we had the worst experience in twenty something years of travelling and for what...
