1.0 Untitled - Crilly 31-03-2025

Positive points: Not at all what I expected. I ended up checking out 30 mins later and booked another hotel. 2 twin beds were squeezed next to each other and not separate at all. There was no room to move. Room looked dirty.

Review: Good

4.0 Tricky location, bare bones rooms, terrible bathrooms - Parisny 01-01-2025

Positive points: Staff at reception and housekeeping were professional , helpful and considerate

Negative points: Location: while the neighborhood is interesting and close to attractions, the hotel is only accessible through narrow alleys. Potential problem is you have mobility issues or luggage. nThis is an older building with so-called wet baths, meaning the shower area is not isolated from the rest of the bathroom, resulting in a permanently wet floor and unpleasant environment. Taking a shower should NOT feel icky.nBasically zero storage. My double room had only a single tiny stool and a small pegboard good for maybe three pieces of garment. Absolutely no other hook or closet. You have to leave off your suitcase, for which there is no space by the way. nThe building itself is oriented in such a way that my room was flooded with very harsh daylight from about 8:00 a.m. to late afternoon, making my room hot like a furnace in late December.

4.0 Great location but not clean enough - Genesis 01-01-2025

Positive points: Property is located near train and buses.

Negative points: Room was not clean. One of the cups I was provided had an old lipstick stain which I didn’t realize until after I took a sip. Stains on walls and pillow cases.

8.0 Very good - Aysenur 29-12-2024

Positive points: Great location! The staff were friendly. The room was clean and warm. We did not even have to turn on the heater. There is a mini market at the basement. The room was small but comfortable. It is such a good stay for the price we paid.

Negative points: The room is a bit small.

10.0 Good hotel - Sunisa 04-12-2024

10.0 Exceptional - Ioana 29-10-2024

Positive points: The room was clean and the staff was really nice. We got free water and clean towels everyday.

8.0 it’s my second time staying here so definitely recommend - Zhanna 30-09-2024

Positive points: location is great! so close to most of the must visit places

Negative points: walls are kinda thin so you can hear your neighbors sometimes

7.0 Great location, very decent for the price - Ching-Yao 27-09-2024

Positive points: I like the location as it was close to many must-see sites, no matter if you went North or South. There was plenty of public transport, including airport limousine bus. nThe room was decent, airco was placed perfectly (right above the bed, but it blew away from the bed), water pressure and temperature was great (handheld & rain shower)nBugspray is provided, as well as a fire extinguisher, an emergency line & wall mount in case you have to escape through the window. Two waste bins were provided with extra waste bags underneath the existing one. nAlthough I thought I wouldn't like the 4 mini towels (40x80cm) it was actually fine. Even if you didn't request cleaning, you would get 4 clean towels a day (& 2 bottles of water)

Negative points: It wasn't unsafe at all, but I didn't like the quiet alleyway.nnI didn't like the lighting (no bedside lighting) and no bedside table, so I used the small stool. nThere were only two hangers, one rod and two wall hooks. I brought my own door hangers.
