I’d give this hotel a solid A-. It was clean and had everything you could reasonably expect. The staff were very pleasant and I felt safe with their security from the bustle on the street. The only thing I didn’t understand was why the fridge was a “cooler”, not a real refrigerator. I would have appreciated the ability to keep take-away food fresh.
The staff is extremely helpful and friendly; the hotel is very clean...
The area around is unsafe: people we selling and doing drugs almost in front of the hotel;
there weren't any sockets in the room except for the fridge on the opposite side of the room and in the bathroom. So, it was challenging to charge my gadgets and use my phone in bed. The heater also didn't work. The view from my window was on someone's mattress, and garbage was all around this mattress. The internet was very poor as well. Mainly good connection was outside the room, on the floor.
Also, it's very noisy outside. I'm fine with noise, but for those who are planning to stay for long and have a proper rest, this might be disturbing.

Helpful staff. Clean room and sheets. Close to the shopping and restaurants and Metro.
Very uncomfortable pillows. Very noisy area. No king bed it was queen bed.
Overall the Alba Hotel useful because of its central location, superb staff and cleanliness. On the other hand, the "King" room we booked with Expedia turned out to be small with a short "Queen" size bed. And the room was on a noisy alley despite our reservation containing a note that we desired a quietly located room. The room rates we paid were too high compared to the afirementioned issues we encountered.
This place was everything I was hoping for-a clean, simple place to stay. At certain points there was some noise from other guests and the street but it wasn't too bad.
Friendly staff and conveniently placed in the center of town. If you are looking for a cheap hotel this is perfect. However, the room was small with not much space to put things eg bathroom and table in the room. The kettle never boiled the water, the hairdryer turned off halfway through drying my hair. The price was very fair but I would chose a bit more comfort next time I visit.
Staff were excellent. Shower head not attached to the wall. Heating/air conditioning control unit didn't work. No premium TV. Overall, very so so.

Excellent Location and Staff
The location is excellent !!
We arrived at night, the staff was very nice and helpful. The room however is a bit tricky as we needed to use another entrance like going to another building. A bit scary as the lights is sometimes not functional.
The room is spacious and the bathroom is very clean.
The kettle is not automatic off and there is only 1 small trash bin in the toilet.
The winning points for Alba is their super nice staffs and location. Otherwise, a so so for others.
As a Muslim, great location as abundant halal food and very near to the mosque.
good location , good service , reception very helpful and clean hotel

Very central; pleasant and helpful staff; cafes and restaurants nearby.
Air conditioning rather a mystery as I didn’t see any sign of it and thought there wasn’t any
This hotel had good security and was very clean. The only complaint I have was about the refrigerator. There was no thermostat to change the temperature and the room air was actually colder than the refrigerator.
