Very clean and well maintained hotel. Staff very professional and helpful. Created by everyone during interactions, check in, maintenance, housekeeping, and cook at breakfast. I literally checked in walking downtown, and the room was ready by the time I walked to the hotel.

I had contact with reception, cleaners, chefs, they all nice. parking in the basement free if you are a good negotiator otherwise 10 Euro a day, plenty food all the time. The only downside is the wall need to be soundproofed some neighbours are loud if you encounter this call the reception and complain.

Property is ok but check what you are booking. I went for a suite expecting normal extras but standard bed in a big room. My fault for not checking. Pool area is excellent but be careful, tiled area very slippery, one guy suffered a bad head injury when he slipped up. Tivira is lovely and this hotel offers an excellent position for looking around. Would i stay again? probably but I would be more careful about what i was getting. Oh, and when I checked out I complained about no instant coffee in the room... apparently you have to request it.
