Stayed in 5 hotels in 4 different countries over a 9 day period and this hotel was easily the best value for money of al
Pros:

This was a big step up from the average budget hotel - from the cleanliness and ideal location to the decor and helpful staff.

Cons:

No real complaints - I was travelling solo but perhaps two people might find the room a little small. However, for the price, this hotel is unbeatable.

納得のいく宿泊でした
Pros:

清潔で広さもまずまず、エアコンもあり過ごしやすい部屋だった。洗面周りが広かったのもよかった。大聖堂などに行くにも近い道がわかっていれば10から15分程度で行ける。ただ大聖堂のライトアップを見に行った帰りの雰囲気は微妙だった。

Cons:

欲を言えば冷蔵庫が欲しかった。ホテル前の雰囲気がちょっと気になった

Pros:

Despite close to a train station, the soundproofing was amazing. We had a solid sleep on our one night stay. Close to the cathedral, many restaurants and good for us with a train trip in and out. Bed was comfy and room spacious enough for our things.

Twice charged
Pros:

Location, Breakfast

Cons:

I was charged twice and still haven't received a refund. I have proof of payment from the bank, but the hotel doesn't want to refund the payment.

Άνετη διαμονή σε πολύ καλή τοποθεσία
Pros:

Πολύ κοντά στον κεντρικό σταθμό, αλλά σε ασφαλή περιοχή. Δίπλα σε μετρό, ενώ οι απόσταση μέχρι την παλιά πόλη και άλλα κεντρικά σημεία καλύπτεται εύκολα με τα πόδια. Άνετο δωμάτιο, καλή θερμοκρασία. Θα ήθελα να παρέχει ψυγειάκι αλλά μικρή απώλεια.

Cons:

Είμαι πλήρως ικανοποιημένη.
