I have been there for three weeks, on a business trip in Brasov, but I will definitely not return to this location. A lot of aspects to be considered.||||Good aspects:||* Location: close to the city center, 20 mins walk, restaurant nearby, nice side-street away from the noise and traffic||* Large rooms||* Staff: friendly and helpful, especially the lady in charge of the breakfast and cleaning||* Relaxation area: nice space, with a BBQ facility, green area, excellent after a day's work/visiting trip||* The Husky dog: Cronos... lovely company and indeed offers the location a warm, family friendly atmosphere and vibe||||Negative aspects:||* You can hear everything from the other rooms. DO NOT take a bottom floor room, you will not get a good night's sleep. Every time the other people would walk, get out of bed, speak or watch TV, you can hear everything - BIG NO NO!||* Breakfast: might be Ok if you are there for a few nights, but the choices are very poor if you are there for a long time: same cold dish, with a choice of either omelette or fried eggs.||* No mosquito nets: in the summertime, it's a nightmare. No sleep because of the buzzing||* No AC : I am aware that Brasov might not be the hottest city, but if you do open the window before going to sleep, the mosquitoes will be the uninvited guests||* Mold in the shower cabin : cleaning is superficial, the mold is visible||* Bedding and sheets: small blankets, way too small. Also, the sheets were at times with stains, and even torn and with holes in them.||* Cleaning schedule inconvenience: on Sunday around noon, when you might want to get some rest. I understand that it is after the checkout time, but since you can hear everything in the place, it's not very nice to hear a professional vacuum cleaner hovering above you, and the staff slamming doors of both rooms and closets. ||* Front gate - not automatic, so whenever you want to park inside or leave, you have to get out of the car at least two times, to close the doors before and after. Not the biggest problem, but still...||* Furniture: old and not in the best shape - but...
Read moreWe definitely recomend this place.
The room was spacious, clean and light. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom was clean, well-aired and big. There was enough storage for our things and furniture to relax outside of your bed as well. Only negative were too high pillows, but there were smaller decorativeones I could use instead.
Breakfast was in a form of small bufet (bread, vegetable butter, some spreads, jam, salami/ham, cheese, green pepper, tomatoes, cucumber, coffee, tea, juice, water, milk) with addition of fried eggs or egg omelette made freshly for each guest. You may get tired of it if you will stay longer, but it's alright for few days.
Staff was amazing! There was one lady all the time (which was not so amazing for her I guess) and she was incredibly friendly, helpful and trying to make our stay as great as possible. She was also very knowledgeable about sightseeing, Brasov and how things work in Romania (which we found out too late unfortunately xD). Her English was perfect.
The location has both advantages and disadvantages. You will be 10 minutes of walk away from the main train station and 5 minutes from the nearest public transport stop from which buses for historic center leaves every few minutes. But you will need those buses to get to good restaurants and any sightseeing. The pension is in a very quiet neighbourhood, we found only two good restaurants there and there is nothing...
