w porządku, chociaż mogło być lepiej
Pros:

Świetna lokalizacja. Duży wybór w czasie śniadania. Miły personel. Bez problemu zostaliśmy zameldowani 2 h wcześniej.

Cons:

Okna pokoju wychodziły na główną ulicę - do późnych godzin nocnych słuchać było głośną muzykę towarzyszącą reklamom świetlnym. Nie pomagały nawet zatyczki. W recepcji często było czuć dym papierosowy, ponieważ wszyscy stali na progu hotelu i palili. Pokój był sprzątany porządnie tylko po zostawieniu napiwku. W innym przypadku - tylko pobieżnie. Dostaliśmy tylko jedną butelkę wody na cały pobyt. Drzwi do łazienki były w formie szyby, którą dało się tylko przymknąć, a nie zamknąć, co powodowało duży dyskomfort. Projektant nie do końca przemyślał praktyczne aspekty aranżacji wnętrz, które chociaż bardzo ładnie wyglądają - nie spełniają swoich podstawowych funkcji. Cena pokoju w promocji Black Friday była wyższa niż kilka tygodni przed przyjazdem - trochę słabo.
