Motel Moara Veche

The service is good, and there’s plenty of grass and trees. They also have several pools and some water slides.

Once we were downstairs to leave, they offered another room, but by then we didn’t want to stay. The tables were sticky from previous guests, the fridge was dirty, the TV was old and dirty, and the toilet was yellow from a water stain. The tray for the water glasses had cuts and cigarette stains. We had two rooms in the apartment and two ACs, but neither had a remote, and one didn’t work. That AC was old and broken. I went downstairs for shower gel and they wanted to sell me some. Was that a joke? When I asked, they told me to use hand soap. Excuse me, what? The sauna is listed on the board outside and on the website, but it’s only there for marketing. It’s a lie. I could say more, but I don’t like writing bad reviews, and I don’t want others to go through this. We’re disappointed because we wanted to stay, but not in someone else’s dirt. We showed up after booking ten days earlier, and they had no idea about our reservation, even though they’d asked for all the details, including our name and phone number. The rooms were dirty too. They hadn’t vacuumed the floor for at least a few days: there was hair on the carpet, dust in a corner, and a dead, dried insect on the floor. When the owner came upstairs to look, he didn’t seem bothered. He said, “No problem, if we don't like it we can leave.” So we did. We got our money back, which wasn’t a problem, but we were disappointed because we wanted to stay. We’d driven four hours to get there.

The plates are really lovely. Congratulations!

There’s lots of room to sunbathe, and the pools have clean water and areas that work well for kids. It gets a bit crowded on weekends. You can bring your own food and drinks, or buy them at Moara Veche.
