Hotel Balada

After a relatively pleasant first experience (it was too hot in the room and we couldn't turn off the heat, the only option was to sleep with the window open) we decided to return to this hotel. Unfortunately, it was not an inspired decision. On the second visit I found the toilet bowl dirty. I asked the reception to get another room or to clean the bathroom. I was told by the reception that a person will come to clean. Something that happened, but the person who came was "armed" only with a sprayer, which probably contained, and I hope, a solution to clean the toilet. The person in question spent about 2 minutes in the bathroom, during which time he wiped only the area in question with the toilet brush in the bathroom, as if only the area in question needed to be sanitized. If this is how the bathroom is cleaned, how do you wash the linen and towels? We probably should have thought about the fact that on both visits the parking lot was almost empty and in the restaurant there were only 2 or 3 occupied tables.

We stayed two nights in king-bed suite. The spaciousness, cleanliness and comfort were excellent. This is the perfect place to begin and end a tour of the Bucovina Painted Monasteries. The hotel is close to downtown restaurants with private parking lot. Super easy to find. We ate one dinner at their in-house restaurant. The red wine we chose was a bit off, but otherwise the meal was great.

Ho soggiornato all'hotel Balada a maggio scorso. Le camere sono pulite, spaziose, ben arredate, discreti anche i bagni. In particolare la camera dove ho dormito affacciava su un terreno coltivato, quindi era silenziosa; inoltre le tende chiudevano benissimo la luce esterna, quindi si dormiva veramente bene. Buono il ristorante, gentile il personale.

Very nice hotel, exceptionally clean & comfortable for a very short stay before an early morning flight. Nice amenities in room. Front desk lady was very nice & spoke excellent english. Restaurant food was good and tasty but service was a little lacking in terms of friendliness of waitress & despite our Romanian guide asking if there was anything on the menu “not available” & her replying no, everything was available, learned that pizza was not & they had no broccoli when ordered. I also had to convince the waitress to bring me a glass of water when I could see many jugs of water set out on the counter. Turned out they were for a large group but I just wanted one glass of water. Perhaps suggest a little more training on service. .
