Excellent location friendly staff
Pros:

excellent location breakfast included helpful and friendly staff

Cons:

unfortunately the first night we were in a room 111 which is above the nightclub next door ask them to move me as it was very banging music till130 in the morning but they said they did not have another room. I was not happy, although they did move the next day to a room on the other side so second night got some sleep. also, there was a dirty towel in the wardrobe and the fridge wasn’t very clean.

The location makes this a practical choice, though care towards the cleanliness would be good.
Pros:

The location of the hotel is terrific. The staff is polite.

Cons:

The room has a stale cigarette smell, the cover duvet looked old and unclean. The house keeping staff left their back of cleaning supplies on the dresser table. The staff phone ringing constantly at a high volume was a disturbance late into the night. The overall run-down appearance of the headboard etc made me uncomfortable with the cleanliness levels,

Ausser dem zu hohen Preis, alles gut.
Pros:

sehr freundliches Personal. Wäscheservice sehr schnell und preiswert. Roomservice gut, Portionen viel zu gross, habe eine halbe Portion bestellt, konnte nur die Hälfte davon essen. Reception sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. der hohe preis ist vermutlich der Lage neben dem Taj Mahal palace hotel zu verdanken.

Cons:

Die Aussicht auf den Hinterhof

Pros:

Property was close to everything

Cons:

Very dated. It was clean but definitely needs a revamp. The air conditioning stopped during the night which made it very hot. It’s a cheap place to stay. I would pay extra and stay somewhere else if I visited again. You Pat for what you get.
