Not recommended.
Cons:

The room had no proper ventilation, and the windows could not be opened enough to let in fresh air. The lack of air conditioning should be stated much more clearly on the website. The staff promised to bring a portable AC unit, but no one brought it or even informed us that they would not. The fan also did not work.

In addition, our request for towels was never answered. Overall, it was a very poor experience.

BEDBUGS!
Pros:

NOTHING!!

Cons:

BEDBUGS!!!! DO NOT STAY HERE! I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel obligated to warn others about my recent stay.

My family and I discovered bedbugs in our 2 rooms and in 4/4 beds on our recent stay in April.), which made for a very distressing experience. I reported the issue immediately, but the response from the hotel at midnight was inadequate. We sent follow-up correspondence with photos and videos but never received any kind of apology and after we involved Booking.com they finally did offer a partial refund of 1 night which does not begin to cover the inconvenience, laundry bills, and horrible start to our vacation.

Beyond the discomfort and lack of sleep, we had to take extra precautions to avoid bringing the problem home, which added stress and expense to my trip.

Bedbugs are a serious issue, and I would strongly encourage the hotel to take more proactive measures in inspection and response. Until then, I advise travelers not to stay at YAYS hotels!

Ekki peningana virði en góð staðsetning
Pros:

Allt hreint og fínt. Og stutt i það sem við vorum að leita eftir. Boðið voutcher vegna óþæginda.

Cons:

Miðað við hve kostar að gista Þá vantar meira privat lokal rými fólk var á mínum svölum að reykja hass/party. Bjuggum neðst óskum eftir að færa okkur en ekki i boði. Þurftum að fara í aðra íbúð eina nótt til að sofa þvi reykskynjari fór i gang og ekki fólk til að laga fyrr en næsta dag. Loftkæling hávaðasöm og ekki hægt að laga fyrr en eftir 2 daga. Boðið vouthcer vegna þessa. Koddar ekki góðir. Kuldi kom inn um glugga í svefnherbergjum. Færðum rúmið. Settum inn Rituals til að bæta lykt.

Pros:

L'emplacement est idéal un peu à l'écart de l'agitation mais avec une grande rue commerçante pleine de restaurants à 5 minutes à pied. Idéal pour ressortir dîner pas trop loin le soir. L'appartement est grand et bien équipé avec 2 chambres séparées, une grande salle de bain, un bel espace de vie lumineux.

Cons:

Nous étions à l'étage intermédiaire et nous entendions beaucoup les gens du dessus. Non pas qu'ils aient fait la fête mais on entendait tous leurs déplacements et les gens ne font pas vraiment attention à éviter de marcher lourdement. Donc dommage que ce point négatif entâche un peu le reste du tableau...
