I never saw a human. The room was okay, I could not keep the lights in as one flickered constantly. The neighborhood was not nice, dirty out of the way to get there. It took over an 1 1/2 hours by public transport. I would choose to stay here again

Così così
L'hotel in per se è carino ma purtroppo la camera che mi è stata assegnata senza finestre, e con le prese del clima e della TV penzolanti e il letto distrutto che sembrava quasi di cadere ogni qual volta ci si muoveva

False advertising hotel.
Do not book a room at this hotel. They put us in a room that was 2 floors down. There is no elevator so we had to carry our suitcases down and up 2 flights of stairs. We are 64 and 69 years old. It is in a bad neighborhood also. If you are allergic to dust mites, this is not the place for you. Bedding is old and infested with dust mites. False advertising, in our opinion. Should not even be on Hotels.com.

Good hotel for it price.
Good hotel. Clean, new rooms, doesn’t compare with the trash on the streets. Breakfast was good. We stayed in the basement (it has 2 floors down) and didn’t have Wifi. On the other floors it was good Wifi. It was on some dirty street but not very far from the city Centre. We like it.

I like this hotel and the helpful staff.
I was there only one day. I was told when I got there that I would have a different room. Not surprising. But this one was small and had no window. OK...one night. Then I turned on the overhead light and the fan and light wobbled, a lot and made quite a noise. I didn't use the light. The staff kindly ordered a driver for the next morning. The night before I said I wanted to get some breakfast before I left...perhaps the concierge didn't understand me. When I got upstairs the gate was locked. I climbed over and got a croissant and some tea, then climbed back over. I am sure it was just a misunderstanding. The staff is very kind. I hope they have fixed the light fixture.

Primo hotel è molto simpatico..Molto disponibile la ragazza che abbiamo trovato alla reception. Ben tenuto e pulito. La colazione buona....nulla da poter dire sull' alloggio...ma la zona che lo circonda non è certo delle migliori ed è molto degradata e non brilla di sicurezza...è un vero peccato....

Die schrecklichste Nacht! Wir hatten am selben Tag (am Flughafen in Deutschland) noch 2 Nächte spontan in diesen B&B gebucht. Nach der Buchung haben wir eine SMS Bestätigung erhalten. Als wir in den Flieger eingestiegen sind hab ich einen Anruf erhalten das sie für die erste Nacht kein Zimmer frei haben, mir jedoch ein Zimmer anbieten können uns zwar den „SPA Zimmer“. Da wir am abfliegen waren und wir keine Zeit mehr hatten habe ich das Zimmer für die erste Nacht bestätigt. Als wir uns das Zimmer angeschaut haben war es für den ersten Blick schön und zugleich witzig. Doch als wir uns das Zimmer genauer angeschaut haben war es nur eklig und schrecklich! Das Zimmer wurde wahrscheinlich seit Monaten nicht benutzt, es hat gestunken, überall war Staub, es war stickig nach Schimmel und das allerschlimmste es lagen überall tote Käfer!! Das Bett war für eine Person gedacht und nicht für zwei. Da den Mitarbeitern ein Fehler unterlaufen ist haben die uns eine andere Möglichkeit gegeben. Aber wieso putzt man das Zimmer nicht ordentlich damit auch Gäste in das Zimmer schlafen können ?? By the way das Zimmer war kein Übernachtungszimmer. Die Chefin hat sozusagen Geld für ein Zimmer verlangt bzw. für eine Nacht die uns eigentlich kostenfrei zur Verfügung gestellt werden sollte. Die Chefin hat uns nämlich ein Rabatt von 20€ gegeben, sprich 10€ p.P. Es geht darum, wie die Chefin mit ihren Gästen umgeht. ICH EMPFEHLE DORT NICHT HINZUGEHEN.
