Our second stay in Southern Sun de Wagen
We stayed in Southern Sun de Wagen in March 22 and came back to this property for a reason. Its excellent. Thank you to Mellissa for warm welcome. This time we stayed in Luxury room which was situated outside of the courtyard as all the courtyard rooms were booked at the time i was making the booking. I have to say go for the courtyard room if you planning to stay. Luxury room is same as the others but you pay extra €40-€50 per night for having small fireplace in the room and a bath as well as shower. The fireplace is useless if you travelling in the summer time. Bath not worth the price..The restaurant, breakfast and dinners are fabulous and in beautiful setting. A special THANK YOU to waiting staff. Every single person who served us was magnificent! The only observation is they must work some crazy hours. Same person who served us till 11PM and cleaning after was there for 7AM breakfast serving

Bad Luck? Even so, no effort to make things right.
Let me start with this, the room was immaculate. Charming, clean and with all the essentials. The breakfast was very nice with lovely staff as well!! The A/C went out on a 38 degree day (100 Fahrenheit). After a few calls, the nice man at the front desk arranged to fix it. Maintenance came to our room while we were away as planned, but to our surprise, didn’t actually fix the air conditioning so we were slept very hot uncomfortably, waking many times. There was also a dead rat stench in the bathroom wall that grew to be worse over the course of our two night stay (likely due to the heat). Though things happen, I communicated politely and discreetly with the staff and all seemed to fall on deaf ears. No offer to make things right which is substandard for such a highly rated hotel. I simply got a generic, oh, thank you for letting us know, we’ll make note of that. I would have expected some means of compensation or even a bottle of wine. But nothing. Strange. No help with getting our bags to our room upon arrival/checkin either which was rather strange.
