Had a comfortable stay.
Pros:

The property is just on the edge of the old city bounds. Everything was nearby. Plenty of decent and cheap eating options all around. Most of he must-see historical sites were within walking distance.

Cons:

Not I can think of.

Pros:

Posizione eccellente...
Stanza arredata con mobili moderni e spaziosa...

Cons:

Nella doccia il dispenser era rotto e vuoto...e il bagno poco pulito....Abbiamo scritto (perché non c'era alcuna persona alla reception) che non c'era bagnoschiuma, né shampoo...ma è stato inutile....C'era il bollitore ma nemmeno una bustina di thè o caffè...Lo staff assente, nessuno a cui chiedere un'informazione...

You get what you pay for. Cheap in price but it comes at a price.
Pros:

Very central

Cons:

Incredibly loud, ground floor so loads of foot traffic. Room wasn't ready at 12:00 like advertised check-in time.

Recomendable
Pros:

Muy buena experiencia. El hotel está muy limpio y cuidado, y la habitación estaba impecable y cómoda. Lo mejor, sin duda, es la ubicación: está muy céntrico y tienes prácticamente todo cerca, restaurantes, tiendas, lugares de interés y transporte, por lo que puedes moverte fácilmente a pie.

En general, una estancia muy agradable y totalmente recomendable. Volvería sin duda.

ottima posizione ma servizio pessimo
Pros:

posizione perfetta, dentro il bazar subito all'ingresso, quibdi perfetto per vedere tutto

Cons:

la reception sempre vuota, mai nessuno a cui chiedere nulla, la pulizia delle camere giornaliera (come da hotel) non pervenuta, wifi pessimo non funzionava, dispenser bagno schiuma rotto e vuoto sin da subito e mai riempito anche se richiesto e per chiudere in bellezza il rubinetto del lavandino era inadeguato e difficile da usare

Pros:

Cons:

odanın içi çok eski, yatak rahat değil ve odada çok fazla böcek vardı. tek kullanımlık terlik konmamıştı ve temizlik iyi değildi banyodan kıl çıktı

Buena relación calidad-precio
Pros:

Lo mejor fue la ubicación pero es muy difícil de encontrar con Google Maps porque parece que te manda debajo de un puente que hay justo debajo del hotel. Una vez te ubicas, está muy bien situado.

Cons:

La limpieza.
Ah y me quisieron cobrar como 200 dinares de más que me acabaron devolviendo porque me quejé, son poco más de 3€ pero las cosas no son así.

Pros:

The hotel is very centrally located, and the room was spacious and comfortable. Everything we needed was provided, including an extra pillow upon request. Overall, a very convenient and well-equipped stay. Receptionist and owner were very helpful and cooperative.

Cons:

The room and the entrance area were unfortunately full of mosquitoes. Special attention should be given to this issue, as we had to ask for insect repellent.

Although this may not have been the owner’s fault, the door from our room leading directly outside should never have been opened by the housekeeper, especially if there was already awareness of the mosquito problem. Keeping it closed would have helped prevent mosquitoes from entering the room. It would also have been appreciated to have an extra toilet roll readily available, as we had to ask the receptionist for more during our stay.

Могло б бути чистіше і охайніше.
Pros:

Ціна і розташування

Cons:

Кімната 3 на другому поверсі: з туалету смерділа каналізація; вода в душі стікала під умивальник; погане освітлення у ванній; поламані дозатори мила; зламаний стілець; ржавий смітник у ванній; брудний і зацвилий посуд в міні кухні; виламана розетка біля ліжка.

Das Hotel würde das Hotel niemanden empfehlen .
Pros:

Die Lage hat mir gut gefallen, sehr Zentral zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten.

Cons:

Wir wurden sehr unfreundlich vom Personal empfangen . Jede Frage war Zuviel, mit einem gewissen Unterton. Das Zimmer wirkte nicht sauber und auf den Matratzen waren kleine Tiere. Wir haben mit Desinfektion gesprüht. Badezimmer veraltet rostig und verkalkt. Armeisen waren auch zu finde . Die Wände waren von süßen Getränken durchzogen . Im Flur gab es nicht einmal einen Lichtschalter .

Convenient location, but that doesn't make up for the missing amenities
Pros:

The bed was firm and comfortable! The room also featured an older, energy-guzzling AC unit that probably wouldn't fly in Western Europe (my personal favorite, but they're a bit loud), but it worked miracles against the brutal mid-August heat outside (35C+).

Cons:

Misleading listing! We were missing amenities listed in the description - no bathrobes, kettle, kitchenette/stovetop, or sink. We had to throw out all our food since there was no way to heat it. I tried messaging the property through WhatsApp (# obtained from booking.com), but got completely ghosted. Major bummer.
