Pros:

Die Unterkunft war viel besser als die Bewertungen vermuten ließen. Wenn die Renovierungsarbeiten abgeschlossen sind, wird es bestimmt besser.

Cons:

Einziger Kritikpunkt: Es roch so intensiv nach frischer Farbe, dass es wahrscheinlich gesundheitsgefährdend war. Ich musste zwingend das Fenster offen lassen, wodurch es laut und mückig war, aber ich musste zum Glück sehr früh abreisen.

Pros:

The location of the property was great. Easy access to shops, landmarks and transport. The staff was very nice and helpful. We asked if it was possible to leave our luggage at the accommodation and go back later for the check in as we arrived in the morning. They gave us the option to leave our luggage at their restaurant and let us check in earlier.

Pros:

C’était propre, le personnel était gentil et c’était plutôt confortable + le sol était un superbe parquet !!

Cons:

Il n’y avait pas de bruit mais les murs sont très fins donc nous avons de la chance. La chambre aurait aussi besoin d’un rafraîchissement (déco, peinture…)

Hotel correcto
Cons:

Tenía una reserva por tres noches y la máquina de self check in me dió las llaves por una sola noche. El horario del restaurante donde te atienden es a partir de las 10AM, por lo que me iba del hotel sin haber solucionado el problema. Recién al volver me daban una nueva llave, pero como llegaba tarde de pasear por la ciudad me lo solucionaban de a un día.
