very basic, functional but clean, staff were friendly and helpful, okay for a rest stop but not a holiday, as you could get breakfast we thought food would have been avalible but no only vending machine, you had to go out to eat though we did notice other guests having food delivered we hadn't enough hungerian to phone an order. Cold beer and wine avalible from reception was a godsend as a very hot day

Inexpensive but definitely bare bones
The hotel was part of a package deal with a great price so for the money no big complaints but know before you go--very small quarters around bed and in bathroom (shower water soaks floor area where toilet is because of no curtain or door). Towels are about the size of a narrow table runner. If you're comfortable with hostels, this is one small step up in privacy but about the same space.

Avoid. Stay away. Dirtiest ever. Bedbugs!!!

Acceptable but disappointing room condition
Got a good deal on the room and just needed to sleep over for one night while passing through, so did not have high expectations but was still quite disappointed with the room conditions. We had to almost break open the bathroom door as it was jammed and probably caused a lot of noise, we arrived at 3 AM so imagine this could have disturbed our neighbours. The window blind did not hold in place so in order to use it we had to create our own holding mechanism using a hair pin and a piece of thread. Did not try the breakfast as we preferred getting own on the way.

Worst night ever!
Quite possibly the worst hotel I've ever stayed in!! No AC! Big spiders, bandages for towels, uncomfortable beds, and simply the equivalent to student housing!!

You get what you pay for.
yes, there is an air-conditing in the room, free parking, free breakfast. But, air condition produced a warm air, breakfast was not edile. I just drank a cup of coffee. at least, people at the front desk were kind. The rooms are more like youth hostel. What do you expect, I was passing through the area and looking for a budget place to take a few hour sleep.

This hotel is a long way from
This hotel is a long way from city centre about an hour at least to most places by bus.There is free parking in area. It is a most basic hotel but is clean. No shops apart from very overpriced 24/7 petrol station within walking distance. This hotels offers private rooms at hostel prices. Breakfast is 5 Euros per day but is just rolls and cereal. and drink. The best thing about this hotel is price.It is the most basic place I have ever stayed in.Staff helpful
