Cons:

Ein Hotel das schon sehr in die Jahre gekommen ist. Die Einrichtung schon ramponiert.
Die Straßenbahn ist schon sehr laut. Und die Gegend naja. Als Frau alleine nicht so gut. Es mag ja sauber sein trotzdem wirkt es schmuddelig. Noch mal würde ich dort nicht einchecken.

Nie wieder! Wen ihr nicht auf der Straße schlafen wollt bucht euch lieber was anderes
Pros:

Nichts

Cons:

Abends bei Ankunft die Zimmerkarte aus der Schlüsselbox entnommen und festgestellt dass damit das Zimmer nicht geöffnet werden kann. Anrufe wurden ignoriert. Anschließend als wir eine sms geschrieben haben dass die Karte nicht funktioniert wurden die Telefone abgeschaltet. Wir musste uns um 23:00 Uhr ein anderes Hotel suchen. Am nächsten Morgen wieder dort hin. Eine Frechheit wie mit uns gesprochen wurde. ,,ist mir egal“ ,,ich blockiere alles damit ihr keine Bewertung abgeben könnt“ die Karte hätte funktioniert wurde nur falsch rum eingesteckt. Ja ist klar!! Achtung!! Nicht hier buchen. Unglaublich was hier los ist
