At the heart and essence of Geneva Hotel Central welcomed me
Pros:

Location was the best like in my review.
Extremely basic hotel that is located in a building at 6th floor . Simple and basic yet surprisingly it was beautifully quiet area at night . I didn’t need those earplugs that was provided by the Hotel Central.
AC was crème de la crème of the trip.

Cons:

As for my age I find it difficult to squeeze the soups plastic bottles in the bath room! It is in my opinion great practical idea for such hotel but I truly struggled a bit! “ sorry “ !

Pros:

Ciekawa lokalizacja, czystość, ręczniki

Cons:

Pokój 3-os bez WC to lekka przesada (metraż pokoju na 3 osoby z walizkami)... No i jak na 3 gwiazdki hotel, pokój bez ubikacji??
Parkingu brak, płatny miejski i to jeszcze wskazany przez obsługę 800 m od hotelu

Pros:

Great central location, but still peaceful. Very friendly and helpful staff. The air conditioning in the room was a great bonus during the hot days.

Cons:

was quite funny having two bathrooms in the room, but one was completely unusable due to the size. It was so small that the door literally hit the toilet when closing.
