Une petite piscine permet de se baigner rapidement en été. Il s'agit certainement d'un très bel hôtel dans le passé mais tombé en oubli depuis le déclin de Jo 'Burg.

The shower was very inconvenient because it was in the bath and water was all over the room when taking a shower. The dog nearly bite me and the cats follow guests. Breakfast was acceptable. There was loud noise on daily basis from the neighbouring place. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Nesil Jul 17, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was very disappointing experience. When we walked in to hotel we couldn't find anybody in the reception for 2 hours almost. And the guy appeared with robe on him.. the room was terribly dirty. We saw the dogs on the aisle of rooms.. ##### Nesil Stayed 9 nights in Jul 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica Jun 16, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Highly Recommendable for Pet Lovers Excelent!
