Great stay
Our stay was great, service was excellent, bed was really comfortable. The aircon is slightly broken and the bathroom is very dated. The jet bath is semi functional. All in all a great experience.

Great stay when traveling with pets
I have stayed at Rusplek before. It is really great if you have pets traveling with you. The reception is friendly and the breakfast served was of a high standard. I found the grounds not as neat and tidy as before, and the soap and shampoo provided were very skimpy.

Hot, tired and unfriendly welcome
The reception staff were not so friendly to begin with. When we arrived at the room, there was no toilet paper. This is not acceptable if your guests traveled a long distance. After requesting toilet paper we were told that, "she" will bring it when "she" comes. The courtyard in front of the room was only cleaned after we arrived, while we were in the room. We had to go back to reception to find out about the wi-fi, only then we received a username and password with a complementary 1 gigabite date usage.

Leaky ceilings and bad coffee
Very friendly and helpful reception staff but the group of houses sit behind high walls and fences so one feels a bit isolated from the area? The main complaint was waking up with the gurgling of a leaky ceiling (from the bath above) Into the breakfast area whilst having your (rather stingy) single cup of plastic coffee?
