Guest reviews
Pleasant
Liked: Great accommodation,staff and location
Disliked: Bedroom next to kitchen and can be noisy
Disliked: There was no air con or fan. Other rooms had a fan. It was very hot and I struggled to sleep
Not worth the money spent
Liked: Location was only the positive side
Disliked: We spent 99 euros for a night stay. The conditions were extremely basic, the facilities were dated and old. The door of the room was old and the lock was defected, offering no great security. The main corridor had no light either. no sound proof between rooms. I could hear other people's talking, literally everything. Disappointing...
Liked: Nothing
Disliked: There is no window in the room. There is a very strong smell of mold inside the place. Just awful place to stay...
Liked: I loved the little touch 'welcome julie' and having all the other welcome notes displayed in the room.
Would not recommend if you looking for a comfortable proper hotel room
Liked: Great location close to the main city sights
Disliked: The room was extremely hot, but there was no air conditioning. Since it was on the ground floor, the windows were low enough for someone to climb in, so we couldn’t safely leave them open at night. We had to choose between sleeping in unbearable heat or compromising our safety.
