My fiancé is a veteran and we were treated with disrespect. We have spent a lot of money on hotels and this one was the
Pros:

Bed was comfy and housekeeping was super friendly

Cons:

Elevator was broke and several people got stuck in it. Cable was messed up and went out every time we watched a show. We mentioned it a lot and never got it fixed or any compensation for not having tv Maintenance came up unannounced and I was trying to get dressed and when my fiance opened the door the man up front and maintenance came in and scolded us for having some dish soap on the counter and for having towels in the floor. We are homeless and have spent lots of money here and were told we got no compensation and had to leave

Pros:

We stayed in a large room facing the back part of the hotel. It was so cozy, quiet and comfortable! The hotel has a retro/soviet vibe that we loved, you expect this kind of good surprises when you are in tourism. And for 35 euros per day average you can't expect everything being perfect and ultra modern. Walking distance for major attractions, right beside the opera with by the way we fully recomend. Being that said, it's a 10, we had a great stay there!
