Cheap budget hotel in good location
Pros:

The location. Rooms were cleaned daily. Staff were friendly.

Cons:

The hotel decor is dated and not in the best of condition . The Wi-Fi is not great in rooms but ok in reception. No fridge in the room. $500 dollar incidental charge a bit much considering the quality of the hotel.

Un bon emplacement mais un immeuble vieux
Pros:

L’emplacement est vraiment idéal, le personnel est agréable et serviable, la salle de sport est sympathique.

Cons:

Le wifi n’a pas marché hors du rez de chaussée et de la salle de sport, si fenêtre sur rue c’est très bruyant, mal insonorisé dans le couloir.
Quelques visites de fourmis et un cafard.

Lage

Cons:

Das Bett hatte Bettwanzen!
Ich wurde nächtlich gebissen und hatte am anderen Morgen überall rote Flecken; ich werde diese meinem Atzt zeigen. Den Hotel Manager habe ich vor Abreise informiert.
