Hotel Mediterraneo

zum ersten Mal in diesem Hotel für 2 Nächte. geräumiges Zimmer mit Meerblick, brandneu und sehr sauber. bequemer kostenpflichtiger Parkservice und die Möglichkeit, den Strand zu buchen. Frühstück mit allem mehr. sehr empfehlenswert

Problems started right after I arrived by car. Turns out that the *********** description of parking arrangement was straight out lying claiming parking costs 3 euro whereas at the reception I was informed that there is no onsite parking space and I will have to park 200m further down the road for 10 euro per day. The 200m turned into half a mile when I actually got there. This kind of information should be printed with BIG letters on the booking page before you book the hotel. I was very tired after long hiking trip in Slovenian mountains, and having convenient parking so I don't have to walk far to get to my car was a key point in choosing the hotel. Next, the view from the room. It's true. The hotel is actually beachfront and my room also had windows towards the sea. Unfortunately from the 2nd I wasn't able to see any sea behind the street and the bars on the other side. I asked for a room on a higher floor so I could actually see the sea, but I was told none is available. Overall rooms from which you cannot see the sea should not be advertised as having 'ocean view'. This was second key point which i based my choice on and again i was lied to by the hotel management. Considering above two points would be enough to make me cancel the reservation, but it was too late and I was too tired to find a replacement. In which case all I can do is to write an appropriate review. In addition, smaller things that also negatively impact my perception of this hotel: my room smelled strangely, the minibar was empty and you actually have to call for room service to deliver whatever you want to your room (I'm not gonna pay for that though and any chances for me leaving a tip in this hotel have died long time ago), room was very small, barely enough space to walk through the room. On top of that I paid 576 euros + 6 euro city tax + 20 euro parking for 2 nights, which gives a per night price of over 300 euros. That's on par with some 5 star hotels with much better arrangements and amenities. This hotel standard is nowhere near this value range. On the positive side: the staff was nice, the room seemed to be clean, the bathroom was ok. The terrace on top had a decent view to the venice islands and on the other side to the sea, but you can also see ugly buildings next to the hotel which obstruct parts of the view.
