Reviews for Pension Bran Ioana
Review 1：At the time we arrived, there were no people to receive us at the establishment, having to go look for someone to do the check in.
Review 2：Comfortable rooms, typical rural location, extremely cozy
Review 3：the tourist fridge was not something that I was a fan of, but never the less it was a good thing that we had access to a fridge
Review 4：comfortable room, clean, friendly and helpful staff
Review 5：The beds were hard and the decor was rustic at best. lain linen would better than animal print! yeugh.
Review 6：Excellent play area for the kids. Perfect location.
Review 7：It was pretty difficult to find it at night, and the room was very cold - without the possibility to warm it.
Review 8：It was close to the Bran Castle, and the price was pretty low.
Review 9：It says that accomodation are only till 10PM. After exhausted travelling across the ROM destroyed roads (in high temperatures) we arrived a little bit late (11PM). The room lady was very rude and start yelling at us that this happens all the time. She should someone managed the later guests. Not acceptable in all cases yelling at customers! Accomodation: there is a private parking but the road is very steep and not maintenaned-> little cars wont managed it. Rooms are designed in a Tsigan style(not an issue). Whole house looks like fast-builden. There are unfinished parts everywhere. Little gaps in hotel door, shower doors. Walls have ears.
Review 10：I would recommend this hostel for short staying to take a nap or for backpackers. Quliaty represents the demanded prize.
Review 11：We stayed for 2,5 weeks in Pensiune Ioana, it's a very nice location, a short walk away from both Bran castle/centre, and the mountains of Bucegi, the pension is right in between them. Really nice hostess and host, friendly, helpful and hospitable, they provide you of anything you'll ask for. Nice room and good food, especially if you love meat, also everything for a great price. The neighbourhood is absolutely safe and relaxed, and the people in the village are also friendly, talkative and social. We will definitely return next year.
Review 12：Owners in pension are absolutely sweet, warm and friendly. Helped us with ideas for walks and etc Place was very peaceful, safety and well located. All is clean. Nature is magical. Bucegi mountains and castle have incredible atmosphere. Hope for comming back again:)
Review 13：Staff very freindly, and especially if you're bringing a pet, rooms are fine, wifi great, hotel grounds are ok, the property is very rustic, set in a more rural area of Bran. Can reach town in 15-20 minutes, small mini market, less than 1 minute away. Christina the host speaks good English and she is very helpful.
Review 14：Bed sheets smelled. Bed uncomfortable. Room cold. Room cleanliness was awful. Shower was dirty. Toilet broken. Not all rooms have wifi. No choice in food and you really need to like European food.
Review 15：The staff really tried to help but just weren't organised.
Review 16：Nothing!!
Review 17：Staff super friendly!! Lovely location, very warm rooms. Close to bran castle. Nice room with beautiful view off balcony! Would definatly stay again!!!! Highly recommend!!
Review 18：The room was cosy having old furniture Bathroom in really poor condition Very cold during the night The hone was making noises
Review 19：A little bit the welcoming staff Room terase
Review 20：The rooms were gross. The bathroom was so nasty we didn't shower. A cat randomly got in our room. After we put it out it cried all night. The room was small.
Review 21：The owners were nice.
Review 22：High-Voltage wires near pension. Sizzle noize is heard sometimes. One of the room contain a folding doors to WC/shower :) Entrance to parking place is steep (way to pension as well) so in winter it could be problem.
Review 23：We stayed at pension only for 2 days. I would recommend it for shortimers. Room consist of: king bed, cupboards, night lamps, closet, TV, balcony, Toilet merged with Shower 2x2m. Family with 2 kids should choose 2 rooms. We stayed at room for 4people but it looks little bit like the others 2 persons rooms. All these things are considered in price. Who is seeking for more luxury should choose other pension. We didn't try the food but people have written good feedback on it. Owners are firendly and there is no problem to communicate in english with them. There is a big yard around the pension. Kids can also play with friendly doggies. There is possibility to use the kitchen for cooking. The centre of Bran is 15min by foot so it is good to take a walk and take a deep breath of a fresh mountain air. Owners are already building new apartments next to the pension.

Review 29：Bran Loana was the best place to be for us in Rumania. The location was good, near the Bran Castle. And the view from the hotel is so beautiful, just by the mountains and the river. The staff was very nice and you felt like home. The food was great surprise. Do order some meals, it is so good and all ingrediens are as fresh as they can be - fish from the river, milk from the cow and so on. Delicious! Good value for money too! We had a lovely stay in the idyllic surroundings, and we warmly recommend the place.
