Penzion Oaza Prievidza

We stayed at the Oaza pension after having driven across Europe to deliver my glider for some refurbishment work nearby. Accommodation is on the first floor (second floor to our American cousins) and first impressions were that the place was a little run down. Access was via a metal fire escape type staircase and our room was along a longish corridor. The room itself, although only decorated to a basic standard was quite okay. We liked the lobby which led to the ensuite bathroom. This gave us a bit more storage. We then encountered a problem. We had understood that our booking was for bed and breakfast but with no restaurant, breakfast would not be possible. There was a small communal kitchen available for the residents as well as a nice outside patio/deck to the rear of the property which overlooked the adjacent park. The owner of the pension kindly arranged for some breakfast cereal and tea/coffee making for us and we were able to enjoy a simple breakfast which was quite sufficient for our needs. A problem solved. In terms of location, it is set between the twin towns of Prievidza and Bonije. It is immediately adjacent to a very pleasant public park which has a cafe where you can get basic foods like pizza as well as, of course beer. A large shopping area is nearby in Prievidza. So will I stay there again? Very probably. When the restaurant is back in service, I imagine that this wil be a very pleasant and well situated pension.
