Very let down by this hotel.
The Room
Firstly, do not book a so called "superior room", the only redeeming feature of the hotel is the view, and we were stuck in room looking at waste space with some plants. It was like being in the basement. Didn't use the balcony once, cannot believe i paid extra for it. Though being a superior room it came with a bath, should have been nice if the bath didn't take nearly 45 minutes to fill up.
Other issues-
No mini bar menu so no idea what anything cost
Poor bed linen thin and not good quality, the beds needed replaced as well
Poor thin towels, needed replaced everyday
There was a disgusting plaster on the hair dryer.
No information on the hotel except that which was given out in reception but this very poor.
The Bar
Small and no atmosphere, no music played. The amount of wine they gave you in a glass was a complete joke for the price. I thought they were letting me taste the wine at first and then i realised that was all of it! The so called happy hours were a joke too, offer you about a euro off an aperol spritz between 5 and 6 and then a gin and tonic between 8 and 9 and that was it! We never really drank there after the first night and there was a nice bar on the way to town called Banje that was very simple but had more atmosphere and better food and drink.
This sounds like i drink a lot but i don't, but on holiday you like to relax somewhere in the evening and we just went back to the room.
Restaurant
I would recommend not paying for half board and if you could have not paid for breakfast i would have done that too. The food was woeful.
Breakfast
Terrible coffee (powder milk in the machine)
Fruit juices were basically diluting juice and with sugar levels that would destroy your teeth
The Yogurt was watery
Toast (the machine that made toast took 15 mins so i gave up in the end)
And the rest was bog standard, we stopped really having much other than ham and cheese
Dinner
As someone else commented, it was like poor school dinners, the same old stuff nearly every night. And as others have commented you have to pay for any kind of drink including water. This would be ok but you would have to pay for 4 glasses of their size of wine to make up one normal glass. And the prices were not cheap for the drinks. I think thats why they allow you to sign everything to you room so you don't realise how much you paid.
Again like the bar after a few nights we stopped going to dinner even though we had paid as it was so poor.
Pool
Pool area was very small and cramped, not relaxing at all. The outside areas in general were poor.
Overall if there was was thing this hotel was good at it was mediocrity. It is the definition of meh! if even one thing had of been above average i would have been happy. But there were much nicer places to stay. I think it only stays open because of the endless stream of Americans who stay one or two night when on longer trips and so they don't care as much.
