Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a mixed experience overall. The rooms were awful - old, small, and smelly, which was disappointing. However, the garden view was a bonus. The service was friendly and helpful, but there were issues with attitudes and responsiveness, like not providing towels promptly. The location was not as close to the city center as expected, taking longer to reach. The dining was decent but could have offered more variety. The facilities need renovations to match current standards.
The hotel had some ups and downs. The service was lovely with kind and helpful staff, but the rooms were not up to standard, being dirty with bad smells. The location was convenient with various amenities nearby, yet the dining experience was a letdown.
My stay at the hotel was great overall. The room was spacious and clean with a small balcony, but unfortunately, the air conditioning wasn't working properly. The service was friendly and professional, though I felt there was room for improvement to make it standout. The location was good for accessing the old town, and the area looked beautiful. The dining options were adequate but could have been better with more variety. The facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel offers great value for those on a budget, despite rooms needing upgrades. The service is accommodating though not exceptional. The location is convenient for exploring with a few minor drawbacks. The dining experience is average and could be improved.
The hotel needs some improvements, especially regarding cleanliness and maintenance. Despite the issues with the air conditioner and television units in the room, the staff could not resolve them promptly. Lack of essential room amenities like towels, minibar, and a non-functional phone were disappointing. The overall appearance of the communal areas and the exterior of the building needs attention, although these issues seem to be primarily cosmetic. The price paid online for the room was adequate.
Our brief stay in the room was quite disappointing as it was not clean, and the bathroom was dirty. The towels were provided very late after multiple calls to reception. The room appeared older than expected from the booking photos.
