Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
After 25 hours travel from Norway, we were met by a friendly host. He offered us a better room than we had booked. He also recommanded a nice resturant in walking distance from the lodge. We had a wonderful seafood meal. And we had a good night sleep in the lodge. Villa Tropicana was a peaceful place in our shart stay in Margate. Asle, Norway.

Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis

Wir waren für zwei Nächte dort und hatten das vordere Zimmer mit einem großen Fenster. Die Unterkunft ist eher einfach und zweckmäßig, aber für die Durchreise völlig ausreichend. Die Betreiberin ist freundlich und das Frühstück war gut. Insgesamt ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
