Pros:

Die Lage

Cons:

Im Zimmer gab es keinen Schrank/keine Kommode.
Die Matratze hatte unter dem Bett-Bezug noch die Plastikfolie.
Das Zimmer hat für eine ÜN 110 Euro gekostet. Das ist eine Frechheit.
Der Mann an der Rezeption hat gelogen als es um Kartenzahlung ging. Er hat mich ein paar Mal erfolglos versuchen lassen, am Terminal mit Karte zu bezahlen. Das Haus akzeptiert nur cash.
Obwohl in der Beschreibung bei booking.com Kartenzahlung aufgeführt ist.
Der Rezeptionist wollte die Fernbedienung der Aircon haben, da wir gesagt hatten, die aircon in der Nacht wohl nicht zu nutzen.
Unser Gefühl war, dass es nur um Gewinnmaximierung und keine Kundenfreundlichkeit geht.
Wir können das Haus überhaupt nicht empfehlen.

Ok
Pros:

2100 is the regular rate of the room we stayed, booking.com falsely showed that the original room price is higher and we're getting cheaper rates when booked using booking.com. Why this falsification and treachery?

Cons:

Fake pricing scam of booking.com

Satisfied / Worth it
Pros:

Although it is located in the middle of city there were no city hassles and it was easily accessible to most of the must- visit places by walking too..
Hotel services were extra ordinary

Cons:

Room space is somewhat less for a family and furnitures are limited but they will arrange whatever you need
