Pros:

The hotel is well located.
The fish tank in the hotel is pleasant.
The size of the room was good.

Cons:

During the night, there was an annoying, constantly flashing light in the room that I think was the smoke alarm; it was very distracting, and it was impossible to sleep. The room key was attached to a heavy metal piece that weighed about 2 kilograms, which was really unpleasant to have in your pocket. The back of the chair in the room was cold, and you could not lean against it.

No oli ja nagu ei olnud ka
Pros:

Asukoht on kohe Tartu kesklinnas. Kuigi voodi tundus alguses kõva, siis magasin terve öö nagu nott. Teistest tubadest ei kuulnud mingit lärmi.

Cons:

Tegemist on ikkagi väga vanamoodsa hotelliga. Mööbel on väga kulunud. Lift on lausa nii vana, et mu seitsmene poeg ei julgenud sellega üle ühe korra sõita.

Kes tahab lihtsalt soodsat tuba ja kohta, kus end pesta ja magada, siis see sobib. Kes on aga harjunud mugavate hotellidega, siis valige midagi muud. Sama raha eest saab Tartus korralikku eramajatuse ilmselt juba ka.

Kõhu saab küll täis, aga hommikusöögivalik on üpris kesine.

Kaaluksin uuesti ööbimist juhul, kui tõesti asukoht ja soodne hind on määravad. Sest kohe kesklinnas ööbimine hea hinnaga on suur pluss.

Asukoht suurepärane, see oli olulisim.
Pros:

Treppidel vaibad, soliidne. Personal sõbralik.

Cons:

Aknal suures vaasis on kunstlilled väga väsinud moega. Tühi vaas oleks soliidsem. Jubedad olid hommikusöögilaual pestopurgis kummipuud vee sees, juured all. Söögi isu läks ära.
