“Nice Romanian pension”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011 via mobile
1
person found this review helpful

The pension is nice and clean. The price for 1 room is not expansive but the eatings/ beverages, mini bar are very expansive.
The owners/reception are friendlly but the restaurant people are young and not profesionists.
They have pool with warm watter.
Important: when u come with the car come thru Sibiu not listen the GPS becouse he took us thru a very very very bad road. Romanians roads :(

“Worm soup”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2011

And I didn't spell the word "worm" wrongfully. I went there with my husband and 2 other friends and tried to eat something at their restaurant. And we ordered some bean soup. And what did we see? In my friend's soup, beside the pork meat...there it was one big, white worm!! The landlady was there...but she just turned her back at us. And this is the "great" 5 stars Mai pension.

Horrible!! They didn't even apologized for the event!!

“Home ti Mai...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2010

Pension Mai is the best place for a weekend or holiday. It is within walking distance of the city of Sibiu, but at the same time away from everyday life and bustle of a city. It is an oasis of peace and as someone said, the right place for "pine therapy". Traditional romanian food is at home, and the rooms are welcoming and equipped with everything .I was not once in that place instead thank all ages: summer swimming pool in the courtyard is the perfect place to relax, club inside the pension Mai be an ideal place for entertainment for young people accommodated in the hostel. I felt very good and I will feel again that you spend some days at the guesthouse in May, how many times you get the chance. Thank employees, thanks pension in May.

“Never again”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 June 2008
1
person found this review helpful

I have recently stayed at Pensiunea Mai near Sibiu and I have truly been disappointed.
Their personal website introduce you to a cozy, beautiful, modern resort but the reality is different. We have rented 6 rooms as we were a bigger group and the facts presented bellow are valid for most of them.
All the furniture inside the rooms is obsolete and not "working " properly (e.g. my wardrobe door would only stay closed if locked TWICE with the key :( ). The bathrooms were in a very bad shape also - with shower cabin doors falling down or blocking as you were trying to get out. The carpet was really dirty and the towels received were low quality. All these came with the price of a 5 star establishment ot this kind (80 euro /night).
There is a very nice pool (with heated water and really clean) but as a guest you are only entitled to get near it at no cost - everything else must be paid on top (chair,..etc).

The food is actually good: fresh fish (they have a special pond from where you can fish you lunch/dinner), veal specialty - but it comes at a very high price. Plus they close really early and in case you want to stay later you are asked to move from one place to another without being allowed to order any extra food, drinks etc. On top of this you can have a very nice dinner in the city center, in the pedestrian area, for half of the money.

And..if all this is not enough the location is not as great as it seems. Pensiunea Mai is situated next to the main road and it is really noise. Many of the rooms are oriented towrds the street and the parking lot - so if you intend to sleep later you have to pay an extra 10 Euros to get a room with a view towards the swimming pool.
