Disappointing experience. Very noisy so sleep was constantly disturbed. Everything seems to echo in the hotel. The walls are thin. The layout and construction of the hotel is conducive to amplifying noise. Noise from other guests in their rooms (scraping furniture, flushing toilets etc) doors slamming, the street, and from hotel hallways etc made it a poor stay. Lack of staff or any form of presence from the hotel seems to encourage poor behaviour from other guests. Loads of random people hanging around the entrance to the hotel and there seemed to be people running up and down the stairs and floors at all hours. Honestly not a light sleeper but there was something about the noise during this stay that put me off. Rest of room was ok. No water included in room. No clear check out instructions - turns out you just chuck your card in a box. I get the self check in but leaving a sign on your bed that reads "Cancel your cleaning" makes the hotel appear that its trying to do everything cheaply. Cancel was the first word I read so negative connontations.

The apartment was very nice and the location was great! We could not get the internet to work and to try to access the WiFi, I had to agree to a lot of snooping and marketing crap! After I agreed, the WiFi still didn’t work! Seemed like an unnecessary scam.

Best location! The Lubo was near the Chapel Bridge and <10 min walk from the station, however if you are travelling with luggage you many need to carry up and down the flight of stairs near the Chapel Bridge if you don't want to take a detour. You are right in the old town surrounded by main attractions and shops yet the hotel is tucked away in a quiet area. Check-in/out process is all digitised via the phone with key passes to the building directly accessible via the phone. The digital key pass to our room did not work so we obtained physical passes from the tablet at the main entrance. Lift access is available at the side alley which is needed for luggages, albeit a bit tiny. The room was modern, however tiny which every space utilised. Facilities is lacking with no bar fridge or in room kettle but our room had 4 safes...The bathroom is small, in particular the shower and the shower screen does not completely close. Overall a good stay for 1 or 2 nights if you only need a place to sleep.

Great location. Property is well maintained. Could use more washers and driers. Also, the driers take twice as long as your at home driers, so plan for a few extra HOURS if you use them.

It is not worth to try self-check in which there is no staff to help you. We arrived early, was not able to check in. The machine did not tell you why. We could not ask for store luggage. We had to walk back the train station to store luggage. If you are new to this city and not familiar self-check in, don't try it. The toilet got clog, I emailed info@..., then they came to fixed.

Avoid like the plague! Check in was a disaster. Kiosk not working at all. Try to call for help - gives zero direction, other than to “wait while we try and reset it remotely” as 4 parties all waiting in a tiny walk in spot. Everything was overly digital - everything on phone - but oh when their wi-if kept crashing phone was worthless! Their “convenience” bar machine for snacks, water etc etc - worked one time in 3 days. Called them - oh we will look at it, and never worked the next two days. Zero follow up from them Washers - HORRIBLE leave your clothes sopping wet and basically could not dry them in 4 hours of trying before we had to get on a plane with wet clothes. All great to think you can rely on technology - but try having service and a reliable person to come help. Bathroom sinks had no mirror - you had to turn sideways to see the wall mirror on your left to try and shave or wash - with lighting not placed in the room to see yourself. Can make it look hip and cool all you want in the photos - but get a real hotel with people, and staff. You will pay the same price and get far better. AT YOUR OWN RISK

Had a positive experience with the self-check-in process, which was smooth and convenient. The staff along with Expedia customer service went above and beyond by assisting me with a booking mistake I made over email communication, which I greatly appreciated. They charge extra 50 per person for the kids to stay in family room that has a sofa bed which didn’t make much sense. The location is unbeatable, and I would definitely choose to stay here again.
