Let's have the positive thing first - the location is quite good. A walk of just under ten minutes will get you into the old town of Zadar. And there is plenty of free parking.
Otherwise I am at a loss why they claim to have 4 stars... The rooms are okay - a little bit on the tiny side and the amenities are spartan. The refurbishing obviously was done with out the consultation of an interior designer, and the outside look is horrible. The pool area is not really inviting to stay there and offers no service whatsoever. And don't dare to come to the hotel after 23:00 and look for something to drink. All is closed and the reception simply doesn´t help at all. After several inquiries the guy behind the country gave me directions to some street bars a little further down the road - all the while carefully avoiding to be friendly.
During my stay I had a meeting with another colleague who was staying at the Bastion - definitely the place to go.
