Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was sold to me as a 4 stars hotels but it is not even a 1 star hotel and I know how 4 stars hotel look like because I stayed in el=Biar hotel for only one night and moved to Holiday Inn a 4 stars hotels. El Biar has not central AC, showers without shower curtains. It was sold to me with 24 hours airport shuttle; this is false. I have used Expedia and Orbitz for over 20 years; I will never used it again and will make sure that my family and friends do the same so that our families vacations will not be ruined.

Un etablissement accueillant

Excellent accueil, tres personnalisé. Les equipements de la chambre meriteraient une petite renovation (electricite, robinetterie). Mais cela est vite oublie car les personnes daccueil et de service sont vraiment agreables et competentes. Bravo. Je connaissait letablissement il y a 8 ans et je ne regrette pas de lavoir choisi a niuveau.

PESSIMO TRATTAMENTO

Il personale dell'hotel esige il pagamento a termine del soggiorno, nonostante aver effettuato pagamento interamente anticipato con carta di credito attraverso il vostro sito internet. Figuraccia trattandosi di nostri ospiti! Prego verificare l'attendibilità dell'hotel e la serietà

Pessima organizzazione dello staff

Nonostante il pagamento anticipato su Hotels.com il personale dell'Hotel ha insistito che non era stato eseguito alcun pagamento! Situazione veramente spiacevole è imbarazzante trovandomi con nostri clienti

Fehler im Expedia - Angebot

Das Hotel wurde mir von Expedia mit vier Sternen angeboten, doch nach eigener Darstellung hat es nur drei Sterne. Das Früstück ist mager. Leider liegt das Hotel weit außerhalb des Zentrums, es gibt keinen Metro-Anschluß, deshalb muß man ein Taxi ins Zentrum nehmen, hin und zurück 16,- EUR ! Zimmer in Ordnung, ansonsten einfacher Standard.
