Rooms had old locks with huge keys n no chains so felt unsafe at night .the hotel stopped heat at night , when went down to complain the guy said to write on the email no . Same answer in the morning.at night outside the hotel door n also at reception 2-3 guys sitting n chatting n you could smell drink on them . Not a safe place . Only positive point is the location. Better option would be excelsior hotel nearby
How i kept my bag at door to feel safe .could hear dragging of chair from another room too
